Hello,

I am attempting to create a sales quote creator. I have a product database in one sheet with product number, product, product options, and price in each column.
I then have the 'sales quote creator' in another sheet with a dependent dropdown list (with product options being dependent on which product you choose). Of course, as there is a space in the names so I used =INDIRECT(SUBSTITUTE(B6," ","")). (For a more thorough description of how I made a dependent dropdown list with multiple words you can view: http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal02.html)

My problem is I now want to pull up the price based on the product and product option chosen. I am fairly certain that you can use a combination of the VLookup and Match functions to accomplish this, however I don't know how to make it work with the Indirect function. Maybe you don't even need it. I don't know.

Anyway this is a visual representation of what I am after: dropbox link.

If anything is unclear please let me know. Thanks!!
LP

Highlight Duplicates
Home, Conditional Formatting, Highlight Cells, Duplicate records, OK to add pink formatting to any duplicates in selected range.
in sheet 2 put this formula

=sumproduct((sheet1!b3:b1000=B6)*(sheet1!c3:c1000=c6)*sheet1!d3:d1000))

this will return $9.00

=sumproduct((sheet1!b3:b1000=B6)*(sheet1!c3:c1000=c6)*sheet1!d3:d1000)) should be

=sumproduct((sheet1!b3:b1000=B6)*(sheet1!c3:c1000=c6)*(sheet1!d3:d1000))
