Auto display all related info

[vcff]

Hi All

I had 2 worksheets as follow:

Sheet1 contains hundreds of products name, product serial nos, cost, selling
price, date of purchase, etc.

I had name the range of products name as name.

In Sheet2, using data validation dropdown list, , whenever I select one
product, I want certain info to be displayed in the cells I had intended to.

e.g.

A1 when "Rod" was selected from dropdown list,

to display automatically the related info as follow:
C1 to display the date of purchased,
D1 to display serial number,
B4 to display selling price

Thanks

Hi,

Take a look at VLOOKUP.

: Suppose your product name filter is in A1 and suppose your
table with all the info is in Sheet2!A1:H1000 with the product names in
column A.

=VLOOKUP($A$1,Sheet2!$A$1:$H$1000,2,False)

This would return the item in the 2nd column of the table for which there
was a match of A1 on the range A1:A1000 in the table.

You can copy this formula whereever you need it and just change the 3rd
argument as needed.
