Hello Excel Junkies,
The worksheet i'm creating allows respondents to fill in 1 to 4 set responses in one cell (shaded gray) for which there are eight possible Set Responses to choose from (i.e. "orange, blue, green..."), whereas the color order in which they choose to respond dictates the order specific numbers are displayed in a cell (not shown) that contains text.

So for example above, the cell with Character text reads "blah blah blah 3.8, 3.8, 3.9. blah blah...", beacuse the respondent chose red=3.8, blue=3.8, and green=3.9. I realize i'll need a vlookup, but am unsure how to use MAX, MIN or whatever within the VLOOKUP function. Please keep in mind the respondent may only choose one response.
Also, I'd like to be able to easily add colors and their corresponding values.
Please help,
MJ

So for example above, the cell with Character text reads "blah blah blah 3.8, 3.8, 3.9. blah blah...", beacuse the respondent chose red=3.8, blue=3.8, and green=3.9. I realize i'll need a vlookup, but am unsure how to use MAX, MIN or whatever within the VLOOKUP function. Please keep in mind the respondent may only choose one response.
Also, I'd like to be able to easily add colors and their corresponding values.
Please help,
MJ
