Hi Cam,
I'll assume both sheets have the part names (or numbers) in column A and the
price for each in column B. How we approach this really depends on how many
accessories might be used for each part. Can you estimate the most
accessories that might be used for one part, and whether multiples of each
accessory might be used for one part, such as 5 of a particular screw? You
might end up with, say 15 DIFFERENT accessories for one part, but with
multiples of individual accessories making a TOTAL of 30 accessories for a
particular part. Let me know and we'll proceed. James
