excel - Drop down list that covers two correspoding columns -


i creating calcuation worksheet pricing construction materials, need easy use, quick , accurate.

can drop down list (let list in cell a1) choose range of values in column c10-b200, bring in equivalent value range d10-b200.

ie, if user chooses "c17" list in cell a1, want cell b1 automatically contain value "d17".

do use if function, or can list span 2 columns? have used data validation create 'materials' drop down list, need include 'price', if see mean.

any appreciated, euan

you can try this. put formula in adjacent cell.

=if(b3<>"";index(g3:g12;match(b3;f3:f12);0);"") 

where

  • b3 contains dropdown (validation list =f3:f12)
  • c3 contains formula given above
  • f3:f12 contains texts displayed in dropdown
  • g3:g12 contains values display in second cell

enter image description here
