    Drop down list/window

    Ok kinda hard to explain what i wanting to do here... but i will give it a shot...

    I'm creating a bid sheet, to make bidding faster and more accurate
    I have several customers from private clients to businesses. I charge each one a little different.
    What i need to do is to let say box A2 is have a drop down list that i can choose from
    the drop down list would contain a list like
    customer A
    Customer B
    Private and so on...

    also let say customer A ... requires me to add 10% to my rates so when I choose Customer A i would need it to auto add the 10% to the hourly rates... and or total bid.

    I'm not sure what your question is: How do you create the dropdown list? how do you add 10% to the hourly rates?
    Would you be able to upload a sample workbook with some mock data, showing the structure you have, and what you want to accomplish, giving specific examples?

    Hi cowboy,

    I think you need to use a VLookup table to do this problem. Look at example #2 at http://www.webber.edu/wunker/Excel/FunctionVlookup.htm to see if you can see how this idea might solve your problem.
    One test is worth a thousand opinions.

    Hi,
    Find an example of what I was trying to explain and see how VLookup works to give different customers different percent markup charges.
