I have a workbook with 2 worksheets. The main sheet is for data entry, and the second has parts listed.
The data entry sheet looks like this:
Item: WidgetA Qty: 2 ("WidgetA" is in cel A5 and "2" is in cel B5)
Parts Req: Qty Req: (these cels [A8-A28 for part names and B8-B28 for quantities] should be populated based on cels A5 and B5 above)
The parts sheet looks like this (I used dashes for formatting purposes):
Part---WidgetA---WidgetB
abc-------1----------2 (these are the number of this particular part needed for each widget)
bcd------------------1 (these are the number of this particular part needed for each widget)
cde-------1----------- (these are the number of this particular part needed for each widget)
def-------2----------- (these are the number of this particular part needed for each widget)
efg-------2----------1 (these are the number of this particular part needed for each widget)
What I would like to accomplish is to have only the parts for a particular Widget from the parts sheet automatically listed on the data entry sheet, and the quantities reflect the number of parts per widget times the number of widgets. No widget uses more than 20 individual parts, but the parts list will contain 100 parts to cover all types of widgets. (Sorry I don't know how to copy and paste the actual spreadsheets to this message to make it easier to look at!)
Thanks!
