    Question Drop Downs & Lookups?

    Hello There,

    For my A Level coursework I have to make a Cinema Spreadsheet. I have used drop downs from the forms toolbar. However I also need to keep a record of what films have been viewed etc. Normally if it was just writen into the cell it would be a simple =ScreenA!A2 formula.

    However it is a drop down giving a number in the cell link show below...
    \1

    What I was wondering is there a formula i could use such as a lookup or If formula so it can say for example IF Cell X = 1 than it would be Michael Jackson This Is It or something similar? I hope that makes sense... I'm not the best with formulas...

    Sure. If you could just let us in on where the lookup would look to find Michael Jackson.

    <have to sit on my hands now not to include something silly about the whereabouts of MJ>
