    Linking 2 colums to fill 2 columns in a dropbox list

    Hi,

    I have been reading and listening to tutorial on the web and can't find a solution....please help!!

    It's quite easy, I am trying to do a droplist (that's easy) but I want that drop list to take infos on 2 different columns and fill the 2 columns I want in the main sheet (see attachment)

    On tab 'dealers' I have dealers name and account numbers. On tab 'Mileage' I have a cell call "NAME' and a cell call 'Accnt #/NB'. Here is what I want to do:

    On sheet 'Mileage' I want to choose from a drop list a dealer name and I want Excel to populate the cell "Accnt#/NB" automatically by chosing the account number that is appropriate to the dealer choosen which is column 'B' in the dealers tab.

    HELP!!!

    Thanks
    Fred

    Try this in the account number cell (once you have set up your drop-down list in M13):
