    Grab Data from more than one column Based on Selection from List in a different sheet

    Hi,

    I really need help with this. I have tried the below tutorials but the results are not what I need.

    http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal02.html
    http://trumpexcel.com/2013/07/creati...rop-down-list/


    Based on What Name is selected from a Drop down List on Sheet 1 Column A (Name Stored on Sheet2), I want it to grab all data that matches the name Selected that is on the same Row of the name matched from Sheet 2 and display on Sheet 1

    Please see Example of made up data attached

    So what ever Name you select from Column A on Sheet 1 it Finds and Matches ON Sheet 2 it populates Column B and C on Sheet 1 with the correct info that was on the same row on Sheet 2 as the name you selected

    Any help would be much appreciated


    Thanks

    A VLOOKUP will work for you

    In B2 copied across and down

    =IF(ISTEXT($A2), VLOOKUP($A2,Sheet2!$A$2:$C$5, COLUMNS($A$1:B$1),FALSE),"")

    My 2?

    substitute commas with semi-colons if your region settings requires
