Is it possible to use linked drop downs with different associated info being displayed in a cell, i.e. cell J1, OD?
I tried using =VLOOKUP(I1,$A$2:$F$6,2,FALSE) but it only works for TFFN. THHN and DLO result in "#N/A".
Is what I want to do possible?

TFFN THHN DLO TypeAwgOD
180.084 180.136 DLO14#N/A
160.096 160.148
140.111140.193
120.130120.212
100.164100.236

<colgroup><col style="width: 56pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 2742;" span="7" width="75"> <col style="width: 48pt;" span="3" width="64"> <tbody>
</tbody>

Code:
=if($h$2="tffn",vlookup($a:$b,$i$2,2,0),if($h$2="thhn",vlookup($c:$d,$i$2,2,0),vlookup($i$2,$e:$f,2,0)))

Code:
=IF($H$2="TFFN",VLOOKUP($A:$B,$I$2,2,0),IF($H$2="THHN",VLOOKUP($C:$D,$I$2,2,0),VLOOKUP($I$2,$E:$F,2,0)))

There's the same...I just can't get it to be uppercase without having two...because reasons.

Thanks NeonRedSharpie. At first the code would only work for the DLO group. After looking a little closer I noticed that for DLO you had $I$2 before the range and for TFFN and THHN you had it after the range. I moved it in front of the range and then it worked great! Thank you very much!!!
