I have 8 excel sheets (basically all quote sheets that have product listed with options that can be added on listed by category.

I.e. Product lists are Truck, Car, SUV - Options Categories are - Radio, Interior color, Exterior color
Then each category has multiple options to chose from

I want to be able to merge these into one, select the product, which then would auto generate the list of options based on the base product they can chose from and the price associated with each option

Copy a format multiple times
Select a formatted range. Double-click the Format Painter (left side of Home tab). You can paste formatting multiple times. Esc to stop
I am having an issue with this working - I get the concept but I don't know if I am missing a step or what....here is my spreadsheet -
I want to be able to select the base and then have the other options (per base Model) auto populate for the other headers

TS-AL500-18A
<colgroup><col width="131" style="width: 98pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 4790;"> <col width="133" style="width: 100pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 4864;"> <col width="64" style="width: 48pt;" span="5"> <tbody> </tbody>

so I select this base - I want all 18A options below to auto populate for the other headers (options, tanks guns etc)

As each base appears to be Unique, does that mean you just want that One matching line to show up under the columns Header.
What's the relevance of all the other data that does not have a "Base" Code.

so the base has a 18A or 18D code behind it - each column next to the base column are the options available for those units, so if I choose TS-AL220-18A - I want the options,tanks,guns, electronics, etc with the 18A reference to be the only items available in those specific drop downs
