I want to design a sheet that will allow me to select components, manufacturers for a P.C.(from a validate list)and automatically select the correct price. I've tried vlookup but couldn't get it to work. The sheet will look something like this.
cell a3-20 = component(cpu,ram,printers,etc) cell b3 = manufacturers(vlookup?) cell c3 = model(vlookup?) cell c4 = price this data is is a separate sheet in the following format.... Column A manufacturer component(type of board P4 or AMD) model column B prices column A Column B Chaintech Excel blank P4 blank 9BIA0 intel 845 Price 9BJA0, Intel 845 Price 9BJD, Intel845 Price Socket 370 (celeron) blank 6AJA4T-G100, VIA 694X price 6VJD2 VIA PRO 266 Socket A (athlon,Duron) LAN/MODEM COMBO CARD/ACR SLOT 7AJA2,VIA 8363A 7VJDA, VIA KT266 VIA (RB) -- 2 year warranty P4-478 ES676B ASUS P4-423 P4T, Skt 423 P4TM, SKT423 |

Let me see if I get this right...you want to be able to select a type of component, then select the manufacturer and model number, and have it display the correct price.
Now you have the spreadsheet setup as components in column A and the respective manufacturer in same row column B, model number in same row column C, and price in next row column C (the price placement doesn't make sense to me). |

oops, sorry. I kind of messed it up(long day). It sould be
cell a3-20 = component(cpu,ram,printers,etc) cell b3 = manufacturers(vlookup?) cell c3 = model(vlookup?) cell d3 = product cell e3 = price I tried to format my post to be easy to under stand, but the format changed when I posted it. I'll try to explain it better. column A manufacturer-(chaintech excel, VIA (RB) -- 2 year warranty,asus) Model-(P4,socket,socket 370,socket A,P4-478,etc... Product-(9BIA0 intel 845, 6AJA4T-G100, VIA 694X,etc... they are listed in this order in column A - manufacturer, model, product,manufacturer, model, product,manufacturer, model, product,etc... Column B is the prices hope this helps. |

the data starts in cell A20 and prices in B20 and goes like this. B20&21 corespond with A20&21 they are categories and have no price data(the "/" represents spaces for clarity.
A20 - chaintech excel / B20 - blank A21 - P4/////////////// B21 - blank A22 - 9BIA0 intel 845// B22 - price A23 - 6AJA4T-G100////// B23 - price A24 - VIA 694X///////// B24 - price A25 - socket 370/////// B25 - blank A26 - 6AJA4T-G100////// B26 - price A27 - 6VJD2 VIA PRO 266 B27 - price A28 - socket A///////// B28 - blank A29 - 7AJA2//////////// B29 - price A30 - 7VJDA//////////// B30 - price A20 is the manufacturer A21,25,28 are the product type (labaled as "model" in my reply to your reply) A22,23,24,26,27,29,30 are the actual products with their prices in the coresponding B cells. A31 is another manufacturer A32,36,39 product type A33,34,35,37,38,40,41,42,43,44 are more actual products with their prices in the coresponding B cells. |
