I am attempting to have this autofill when I use a drop down. I tried to simplify this as much as possible. I am trying to make it so when I use the drop down for type ("A","B","C") it fills in the corresponding "Item name" into the "item A" list same with "Item B" and "Item C". I can get it to pull the data I want with XLOOKUP, but I cannot figure out how to get it to not duplicate or always take the first match to "A/B/C" for the lookup_value after the first match.

-Not all items will have types
-The "Type" column is a drop down from "Column1"

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
