Simple drop down list validation
 

Hi All,

I have two lists on one sheet, (Data), Services & Price.

In another sheet, (Invoice), I am using a drop down list for services,
and when a service is selected I would like it to automatically fill in
the price column.

I thought it would be simple but I seem to be getting the formula
wrong, can you help?

Many thanks!

It always helps if you can give exact cell references where your data
is located, but in the absence of that it will be something like:

=VLOOKUP(A1,Data!A$1:B$100,2,0)

in B1 of your Invoice sheet. Assumes data occupies A1:B100 of Data
sheet, and that your drop-down is in A1 of Invoice sheet, so adjust
the references accordingly.

Hope this helps.
