Newbie here so please be kind. lol

So what I have; a lot number(1234) entered into H1, a station ID#(A,B,C or D) in H2 and the current date and time in H3.

What I am trying to do is reference the lot number and station ID# then enter the current date into that intersected cell.

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500, align: center"]

[TD]A[/TD]
[TD]B[/TD]
[TD]C[/TD]
[TD]D[/TD]
[TD]E[/TD]
[TD]F[/TD]
[TD]G[/TD]
[TD]H[/TD]

[TD]LOT NUMBER[/TD]
[TD]ST 1[/TD]

So If I were to enter 5678 into H1 and ST 2 into H2 and the current date into H3. Then C3 would have the date populated into it. Is this something that is doable? Thank you for any and all help.
 

Excel Facts

Get help while writing formula
Click the italics "fx" icon to the left of the formula bar to open the Functions Arguments dialog. Help is displayed for each argument.
Not with a formula.

The formula would have to be in all the cells B2:D3.
As soon as you change the values in H1:H3 the cell in B2:D3 that worked would then show an incorrect value.

I suggest VBA as the proper way to do this btu I'm no expert on VBA.

Thank you Special-99,

The
more I read the more I see where VBA would be the way to go. Maybe a user form????

Not sure what's happening, I've just downloaded it from you "Quote" link.
When you click that link you should be taken to "Box" opening page showing the sheet content , from that you need to click "Download" (top right) and save the file where you like .

If you still can't download it, let me know and I'll send the code for the Userform.

I was able to download and I believe this is going to work nicely. I believe I could not see the box due to me being on a Mac. Once I was on a PC, no issues.
Thank you very much for this. The more I use it the more I like the results.
