    I'm assuming you have one drop down with AA,BB,CC & DD as options, if so an if statement would suffice.

    =IF(F7="AA",1,IF(F7="BB",2,IF(F7="CC",3,4)))

    F7 would be the cell with the drop down list

    Hello suryatry26,

    I don't see a problem with the formula you were given. Seems to me the problem could be with something else, maybe with how things are set-up, or with what you have in your Workbook.

    Instead of an image, could you please upload a sample of your Workbook, for us to have a look at?

    Thank you.

    Hello suryatry26,

    Thanks for the feedback.

    I chose to solve your problem with VBA. Right click on the Sheet Tab, and then click on "View Code". It will open the VBE, and should display the Code. You could quite easily change it to suit your exact requirements.

    Hope that helps.

    Regards.
