Using the data validation I created a drop down list. The formual I used is =VLOOKUP(K2,A1:A20,2). The list has several codes associated with name of places in A1:A20. When you pick a code in K2, it will display one of the cities from A1:A20 in K1 cell. I need K2 to also display what is showing b1:b20 and c1:c20 in K3 and K4 cells. Also some cites could have more than one data associated, for example los angeles could listed 3x times with different values. Which I would need for cells to update k3, k4, and k5 when a code is selected in k2.

Basically when the code is selected in k2, it not only needs to update the name of places in k1, it needs to update K3, K4, and K5 with the values from
b1:b20 and c1:c20.
