Please see the table below for the cells referenced in my question......
Cell D1 is Data Validation from cells A1:A18
If cell D1 = Cell A2 then I need the value typed into cell E1 to contain the symbol in cell B2 $15
If cell D1 = Cell A7 then I need the value typed into cell E1 to contain the symbol in cell B7 15%
If cell D1 = Cell A9 then I need the value typed into cell E1 to contain the symbol in cell B7 15

I've been trying to achieve the results I'm looking for with a combination of custom formatting of cell E1 and Vlookup.

I feel like I'm trying to achieve the impossible, my head hurts from banging it against an Excel wall :LOL:

Any and all assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for reading my post, I hope to hear from someone much smarter than me soon.
