    Dynamic list creation

    Hi all,

    I work with several suppliers, all of them give me different prices for the same item, and I use to order to the cheapest one. I use to compile all data in one sheet constructed as below:

    column A : generic item description
    column B : unit size
    colume C / D / E / F : corresponding prices of supplier # A , B, C, D.
    column G : lowest price of the 4 suppliers
    Column H : user needs to enter the quantity he requires

    What I would like, is to create in separate tabs (number of tabs = number of suppliers), "dynamic list" that is self-generated from suppliers that has cheapest prices.

    You will find the example of what I am looking for in the enclosed XLS file !
    If possible I would like to avoir VBA.

    Thank you for your help !!

    Hi

    Do you mean something like this, in I3 and copy down?

    =INDEX($C$2:$F$2,MATCH(MIN(C3:F3),C3:F3,0))
    Regards

    Re: Dynamic list creation

    Thanks for your answer fotis1991,
    but that is not quite what is was looking for,

    I would like to populate the other tab (suppliers A/B/C/D) with content of the master table (tab" order list), depending on a row criteria, in my example, the lowest price, column G ( i am working on my side for a solution with a filter... but cannot acheive perfect result either..)
    Thanks you !
    have you got a idea ?
