    if a cell contains codes listed i a column it will show its equivalent description

    i'd like to have a formula

    what if in Column B i'd enter a product code listed in other worksheet its equivalent PRODUCT DESCRIPTION in Column C (which is listed adjacent to the product list in the other worksheet), its price in Column G-I, then in Column D-F I will input the desired quantity, in Column F will compute the product of Column G-I and Column D-F,

    really need help with this,

    Thanks

    Welcome to the forum kabayan.

    First in your table get rid of the spaces before the Product codes. you can issue a formula like this in any cell
    =TRIM(A3)

    then you can use the index/match function
    to extract the description

    =INDEX('LIST OF PRODUCTS'!$B$3:$B$24,MATCH(Sheet1!B8,'LIST OF PRODUCTS'!$A$3:$A$24,0))
    you can follow the formula above for the rest of the table (Price and Case)
    the formula above means
    =index(therangeyouwanttoreturn,match(lookupvalue,rangewheretolook,zeromeansexactmatch))

    look at attachment

    Copy of DELIVERY ORDER FORMAT.xls
    I think people forget the word "THANK YOU!!!!" Do you still know it???

    Good Day!

    The formula you have given me was awesome. But i have another problem. It wont compute the total sales order. You need to fill all blanks with item for it to compute the total sales order.

    Thanks...

    do you want to get rid of the N/A errors?
    you can do that with

    =iferror(theformulaindex/match ,"") -if there is error put null/blank ..you can change the "" with 0 if you prefer

    and with the total--include the iferror in the computation

    =IFERROR((D9*G9)+(H9*E9)+(I9*F9),"")




    now if you want the N/A error to appear and still compute for the total
    you can use the sumif function
    assuming N/A errors are displayed.
    total sales order formula
    =SUMIF(J9:J25,"<>#N/A")
