    Exclamation Multiple cells filled in based on dropdown list

    Hello,

    My brain is hurting!

    I'm looking for a way to automatically populate information in cells based on a drop down selection using data validation.

    Example:

    If i choose 3 from the list on column F, it should automatically populate 'used' in column E and 'truck' in column G on the same row.

    Thanks for any advice

    In E1, this formula:

    =IF($F1="", "", INDEX($E$20:$E$26, $F1))



    In G1:

    =IF($F1="", "", INDEX($G$20:$G$26, $F1))
