    Multi select drop down, want to easily retrieve associated values

    Hi all, would really appreciate any help or ideas for this!

    I found a VBA code online for a multi select drop down. It works perfectly and separates each source item (name) that is selected with a comma. But, I would like to automate retrieval of the values associated with the selected names. The drop down items are names while the values are dollar amounts (expenses by these people that are stored within the workbook).

    Is there a way to use the IF, VLOOKUP, SEARCH function or something similar to identify the selected drop down names and populate the associated expense amounts in another cell (potentially separated by a comma)? Or some kind of addition to this code that will add this functionality? Thank you!!

    Administrative Note:

    Welcome to the forum.

    We would very much like to help you with your query, however you need to include code tags around your code.

    Please take a moment to add the tags. Posting code between tags makes your code much easier to read and copy for testing, and it also maintains VBA formatting.

    Please see Forum Rule #2 about code tags and adjust accordingly. Click on Edit to open your post, then highlight your code and click the # icon at the top of your post window. More information about these and other tags can be found here

    (Note: this change is not optional. as you are new, I will do it for you this time.)
