    Unhappy IF VLOOKUP Help :-)

    Good Afternoon, I'm creating a very simple work that will determine stocks.

    Have included a simple sample - I would like multiple cells to autofill according to a drop-down list.

    ie - I selected 'Tea Bags' and the cells describing extra information will automatically fill out, gathering information from a table.

    Have been trying to write my own formulars such as;

    ...having no luck however - have previously been able to do this but I'm hungry and just want to get this done now so I can go for lunch.

    Any help is grateful, cheers.

    You've used a Form Control Listbox.
    There actually is no value in B4 no matter what you choose from the listbox.
    Delete that, and use Data Validation instead
    Highlight B4, Data - Data Validation - List
    then use the =item as the source.

    Alternately, if you want to use the Listbox, right click on it > "Format Control"> Cell Link B4
    Then you can use this formula
    with Excel 2007 up
    =IFERROR(INDEX(Table1,$B$4,2),"")

    My 2?

    substitute commas with semi-colons if your region settings requires
