Hi there! I'm trying to have a cell auto-populate the data in a cell based on the data entered in 3 other cells. I've pasted a copy of the spreadsheet I'm working with below. I want to manually enter a number in C4, and in E4, and then pick a number from a drop down box in G4, and have it auto-populate the corresponding lbs/sq ft in N4 based on a chart on another worksheet. I've pasted a copy of the chart below as well. Is this possible??

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
Welcome to Mr. Excel
Would you please provide a few examples, including the results you expect from your examples?
Also, it would help those trying to help you if you use XL2BB so that we don't have to reenter your data.

In your example, do you want an answer of 11.513...?

Oh, I'm sorry!! I didn't post a full list of data in my table! Ok, so let's change the thickness to 3/8 or .375; what I would like returned in N4 would be 17.27.

I'm sorry for sounding ignorant, but what is XL2BB?

Does this accomplish it?
Code:
=SUM((Q2:Q8=E2)*(R2:R8=C2)*(S2:S8=G2)*T2:T8)

No... I want it to look up the WT/ft in the chart, based on what I enter in the depth, width and thickness of the chart. so if I enter 5/8 in x 5/8 in x 1/16 in thick, it will enter .442 as the wt/ft

Of course, you'll have to change the reference to where the table is located.

maybe I didn't enter the formula right, but I'm getting a value error... the table that has the data I want to pull from is on another tab "Lists". Would that be causing the problem. I'm just lost! I copied the formula =SUM(($Q$2:$Q$8=E2)*($R$2:$R$8=C2)*($S$2:$S$8=G2)*$T$2:$T$8) and pasted it into the cell that I want to have the wt/ft populate. Is that right?
