I have a column that has a drop down list of employee names (50ea).
I would like the cell in the next column to automaticaly insert the wage
rate for the emplyee name selected. How do I it ?

Thanks for the answer. Could I impose on you a little more. After looking
at the page you refered me to I am still lost. Any chance you could give me
an example of a formula?
 
Hi Rick,
Look at the #catalog example on the page.
Suppose you had a table like the first table in the #catalog example
where you only brought in the Stock Numbers into the dropdown box.

Once the user has made a choice, the VLOOKUP can obtain the
description and a separate VLOOKUP can obtain the price based
on the Stock Number. value.

So you are reutilizing the same table -- if you used a table to
create your dropdown in the first place.
