Hello,

I have a sheet with 4 drop down boxes to build a part #. There is a formula that concatenate the multiple answers from drop down boxes to make a part #. F12 is the formula that builds the part number based on the drop down boxes. The items directly above it.

I would like to have a formula in 3 separate cells anywhere on the sheet, not important, to show that once the part # in F12 = LF-D-2-P-156 (in this case) is picked, it would populate all parts and quantities from its respective cells in columns C and B. I would cpy the formula 3 times as required and change the reference cell to show all the items.

Sorry for no grid, i copied from excel and it did not transfer them.

Column A is the complete assembly #, Column B is the quantity, Column C is individual pieces to make the assembly.

I have tried index, and match, also vlookups with no success.
Maybe a VBA code would work better?


Thanks

Maybe these images will help? Is this possible in excel?
