Hi All:

I have a simple database below. The user has to input PO or NO PO in column D. In column E I need a formula that will put in the sequence. So if the user change the No PO to PO then the sequence needs to be updated based on the order.

Then I need a formula to pull in data from column A based on the key in column E The formula in the current column is not working. Can someone please help.

Can someone please tell me a formula I can use to get the 'key' working. I just need help in making it dynamic based on the user input.

Interesting, it works for me. Let's take the formula 1 piece at a time. What is your result when you plug the following formula into cell B13?

=MATCH(1,$E$4:$E$9,0)

I'm getting a result of 2.
