    Populating excel cells depending on what is chosen from a drop down list

    Hi Guys
    I hope i can explain this properly. What i am trying to achieve is this. I have created a drop down list with specific entries. What i would like to achieve is that if someone picks a particular entry from the drop down list, another cell will populate with a pre defined entry ie
    If i have a drop down list in A1 with the following:

    London
    Brighton
    Liverpool
    Manchester

    i wold like B1 to populate with a predefined number depending on what selection is made at A1

    So if i choose London B1 will show 50
    Brighton B1 will show 30
    Liverpool B1 will show 75
    Mancers B1 will show 88

    I hope this all makes sense.
