I want to enter a customer # and retreive their data
 

How do I retreive data, which I've entered, from another worksheet when I
enter a code or # that is specific to that data?

Assuming you have a yable and the data is set up like

code1 value value etc
code2 value value etc

and so on

then you can use

=VLOOKUP(C1,Sheet2!A2:C50,2,0)

where C1 is the typed in lookup value (code) and A2:C50 the table and this
particular formula will return the value from column 2

lookup VLOOKUP in help
