Hi Guys,

I need some help regarding some work related calculations. I need a formula or a methodology. :confused:

Assume there are 2 tables

Table 1

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500, align: left"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="align: center"]Date[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]ID No[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]From[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]To[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Distance KM[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]1st Jan[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]12546[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Point A[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Point B[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]5[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]2nd Jan[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]15976[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Point B[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Point C[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]?[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]3rd Jan[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]14753[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Point A[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Point C[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]?[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]4th Jan[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]15853[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Point C[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Point D[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]?[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]




Table 2

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]From[/TD]
[TD]To[/TD]
[TD]KM[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Point A[/TD]
[TD]Point B[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]5[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Point A[/TD]
[TD]Point C[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]7[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Point B[/TD]
[TD]Point C[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]9[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Point C[/TD]
[TD]Point D[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]13[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

I need a formula for when I type the From and To locations in Table 1, it looks up the value corresponding KM in Table 2 and places the KM value in table 1.


Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thank You
Regards,
Jithe
