Can a dropdown list be used to autofill data in more than one colu

[Shavey]

Is it possible to use a dropdown to select a name and then to have it
autofill other associated details like rate, contact etc in designated
columns?

[Bob Phillips]

Yes. Use Data Validation for the dropdown (See
http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal01.html), and then use VLOOKUP to get
the details for that particular cell value.
