    Re: Looking to find the correct formulas / Open to Ideas

    The reason you aren't getting a response here is because you have left out a key part of the information. Unless we know the correlation between the variables in yellow and the part numbers to display, there is no way to know which part to display.

    If you still want help, I suggest you provide the key, and some examples.
    If you can't figure out how a formula works, try stepping through it using "Evaluate Formula" in the Formula Auditing menu item in the tools menu!

    If you want to see where your code went wrong, try stepping through it by clicking in the code and pressing F8 and watch as the magic happens!

    Re: Looking to find the correct formulas / Open to Ideas

    Thanks for the response, appreciate the feedback. The photo below shows only part of the key, there's more that I don't have readily available. For any missing variables one could substitute "unknown variable" into the formula, and I can fill in later unless I'm missing why this couldn't be done or understood, which is possible. This is already well beyond my complete understanding so here's my best shot at explaining the key and the variables below.

    My variable list in order (from A3 through G3) explained:

    A3 - This is either "YES" or "NO". (2 options)
    B3 - If A3 is "YES", a selection of multiple answer can be selected here. For now, 100amp, 200amp, 400amp (three options). If A3 is "NO", "N/A" will always be true.
    C3 - This is either "1PH" or "3PH" (two options)
    D3 - This is either "120/208V", "120/240V", or "347V/600V" (three options).
    E3 - This is either "100A", "225A", or "400A" (three options).
    F3 - This is either 18CC, 24CC, 30CC, 42CC, 60CC, 72CC, or 84CC (seven options)
    G3 - This is either "AL" or "CU" (two options)

    The picture below shows the key for only some of the part numbers that I need included. For this "key" in particular, A3, B3, C3, and G3 can be fixed. D3, E3, and F3 have multiple options still.

    A3 - This is "NO"
    B3 - This is "NO"
    C3 - This is "3PH"
    D3 - This is either "120/208V", "120/240V", or "347V/600V" (three options).
    E3 - This is either "100A", "225A", or "400A" (three options).
    F3 - This is either 18CC, 24CC, 30CC, 42CC, 60CC, 72CC, or 84CC (seven options)
    G3 - This is "AL"

    Re: Looking to find the correct formulas / Open to Ideas

    Your description is far from informative, the only relation from your variables and the code that you want to bring is the F3, but even those number don't correlate completely with what is supposed to bring back.
    Have in mind that we can use the drop-down and see your list without you exposing it again.

    Explain this code formation:

    Re: Looking to find the correct formulas / Open to Ideas

    I have overhauled this; I believe all the missing information should be there now.

    I renamed the second tab to "PRL1A PRL2A PART NUMBER DATA". I highlighted in yellow the information I would like to pull over to main "PANEL BUILDER PAGE" in L3, M3, and N3.

    I added a drop down on the "PANEL BUILDER" sheet asking if the panel is to be surface or flush mount. If it's "Surface", then N3 should pull from column G on the "PRL1A PRL2A PART NUMBER DATA" sheet. If it's "Flush" then it should pull from column H.

    I also created a third tab called "WESCO SIM #'s". If any values on the "PANEL BUILDER" sheet in L3, M3, and N3 match in columns A, D, and G on "WESCO SIM #'s", I would like to have the values in columns B, E, and H on "WESCO SIM #'s" pull over to L4, M4, and N4 on "PANEL BUILDER".

    This seems to work for the sample provided.
    For L3:M3
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    Please Login or Register  to view this content.

    For N3:
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    Please Login or Register  to view this content.

    L4:N4 are all similar to: =INDEX('WESCO SIM #''S '!E$3:E$10,MATCH(L3,'WESCO SIM #''S '!D$3:D$10,0))
    Let us know if you have any questions.
