calling up cells from a table.
I'm trying to create a form that draws information from a table on a
seperate spreadsheet. This is an order form and the table carries the product information....see below. What I need is when the user selects a product and color, the adjacent cells in the product table, with values and formulas, are copied to the form. Item Color Quantity Weight Units/row Paleo Beige 123 23.5lbs 42 Bergerac Grey 123 32 lbs 38 So if I have a drop down list on another sheet that chooses Paleo, then the adjacent formulas and cells from the table would be copied over. Maybe I should be doing this through a macro tied to a button. Thanks again for your help. |

No: that will only copy the values.
To copy formulae, you need VBA code (macro) HTH -- AP "tanner" a écrit dans le message de news: ... will it also copy the formulas that are in the table?...in each cell? |

That's what I thought. I'll try to figure out a macro to make it work.
Thanks. |

calling up cells from a table.
If Table is the sheet name, then you should really have:
=VLOOKUP(A1,Table!$A$1:$E$99,2,0) gets Color =VLOOKUP(A1,Table!$A$1:$E$99,3,0) " Quantity It can't copy the formula per se, only the value that the formula produces - what formulae do you have anyway?. Hope this helps. Pete |
