    Cell reference from drop down list

    Hello Excel Wizards.

    I need assistance in trying to solve this Excel Question. What is the formula in excel where the cell in reference return a value from a drop down list?

    For example: I have a drop down list of HomeLoan Programs with rates from 3 different channels. If I choose a 30yr FNMA with rates 3.875 = 100.125 ; 4.00 101.250; 4.125 = 102.00

    If I choose 20yr FNMA it will return the pricing to the cell next to the program.

    I provide a spreadsheet.


    30yr FNMA works from the drop down but all other programs does not work. I am not sure if I have to reference and index or match.

    seanpmac, Good evening.

    I believe that the main problem is a wrong range designation at a formula.
    The formulas on C2:F4 has the range =VLOOKUP(B3,$B$9:$F$11,2,0)

    Try to change to ...$B$9:$F$274...

    Is it what you want?
    I hope it helps.
