    Answering a couple of variables to get the answer to an equation

    Hey guys,

    I'm trying to make a interactive Excelsheet, where the user is able to answer a couple of questions and is given a set result for that combination of answers.

    The user answers the following questions with a list of variables:
    -Client (7 options)
    -Standard (depends on client, up to 20)
    -(optional) substandard (depends on standard, up to 10)
    -Material (50 materials)

    The user also answers the following yes/no questions:
    -coating
    -glued
    -cleanroom
    -REIN1VOOR
    -REIN1NA
    -REIN2
    -EXT
    -IPA
    -Oven
    -Clean

    As you can see this gives a long list of possibilites. Some of these questions affect one another in a certain way. Is it possible to make this, without creating a excelsheet with 700.000 rows?

    The attachment shows how it would work in a simple manner. The first tab consists of the field of variables and the other tabs would 'carry' the possible combination of answers.

    In what way would I be able to make a list of answers without manually answering the questions 700.000 times? Would that even be possible?

    I've changed the file to be a little more clear. An example is given of a combination of variables, which gives a certain answer to the equation.

    Re: Answering a couple of variables to get the answer to an equation

    The file seems to only provide the combination of variables that yield the 'materials' output of 0.7051
    I feel that to provide help we would need to see the combinations of variables that lead to at least some of the other 45 'materials' outputs. Perhaps they could be put on the three client sheets that are already manually populated through the 'Clean' column.
    Let us know if you have any questions.
