    Capturing data from another table

    I sell windows for a living and would like to take the pricing information from my price book and create a spreadsheet where i can capture the information and put it in another table.

    For example, this would be the information provided by my supplier and the spreadsheet I put together below. As you can see, the price depends on the widths in the columns and the cooresponding heights in the rows.

    hi rayzorkat, thats a pretty picture. however, i doubt any1 here is willing to retype your data for you, so i would suggest that you upload a sample workbook, showing what data you are working with, a few examples of what your expected outcome would be, and how you would arrive at that (remove any confidential info if necessary).
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Regards

    Ok, let's try this. The "Price Book" will contain my prices. I want to be able to input the width, height, and type on the "Input Sheet" and capture the cooresponding price from the "Price Book." Does that make sense?Window Spreadsheet.xlsx

    Re: Capturing data from another table

    The width 24 does not match any width in Price Book (32,36,40,48), also the height 44 vs (25,28,32,36,42)
    Which value would you like to get for width and height in this case?

    Sorry about that. Let's just pretend those numbers are less than that. Just throw something out there.

    Basically, the widths and heights from the Price Book are "up to," meaning a 35 inch wide window would fall in the 36 inch category. So a 35 inch wide by 37 inch tall casement should be $440.64. Just trying to figure out how to get that to automatically generate.

    Sorry for the confusion. I appreciate your help.

    Here's a reworks workbook with better numbers.Window Spreadsheet.xlsx

    Mark the problem as Solved under the Yellow bar up Top right, under Thread Tools, when you received a solution.
    It saves time, to skip already solved threads.
