Dear Craig
References A24 = dropdown box with about 18 options to choose from D24 = the cell in which i would like a price to appear that corresponds to the chosen option in A24 G1:G18= Range of cells in which the validation list for A24 is take Product codes and description H1:G18 = price for each corresponding G cell.
I have a Cost quotation with 18 different products which have 18 different prices, how do i create a formula in D24 that will make a specific price appear in D24 when a corresponding optioon is chosen in A24.
I used the LOOKUP formula but it creates incorrect prices in D24.
the formula i used was =lookup(A24,G1:G18,H1:H18)
Please could you help me create a formula for this enquiry.
thank you and best Tasha
Try modifying your formula to look like this:
=vlookup(A24,$G$1:$H$18,2,FALSE)
The dollar signs make absolute references so that the formula is always looking over the whole range of options and returning the corresponding item from the second column.
