    Data AutoFilling based on Conditions and Rules

    Hello All,

    I hope I can get the solution for my excel sheet.

    Basically, I want Cells in Column M to be filled automatically by the corresponding data available in the spreadsheet 'RULES'. The Data depends on the sign-on time chosen, and the number of sectors chosen...

    I tried to learn as much as I can, but as it is an urgent sheet I must have to work more efficiently, I am seeking your help.sample.xlsx

    Thanks a lot...

    Just taking a guess here. I take it that you want the Sign-On time filled in in column C the sectors in column K to get a time from the Rules sheet and fill it in in column M

    If you sort the Rules table small to large you can use this formula.

    thanks to both of you guys I will be able to use your inputs

    newdoverman, i should have been more precise: sectors filled in column E, not K. I will just change the letter in your formula, thanks a lot!!

    Changing the letter of the column should do the trick. I added drop down lists which you may or may not want. I created them to be sure that my tests of data would be correct.

    Good luck.

    If you don't want an error on my formula you can add an IFERROR statement to the formula:
