    Can we make one column primary & when selected get the rest of the values populated

    Hi

    I'm new here and have only a little knowledge on Excel.. and trying to get good hold on it..

    I have database where.. The first sheet have got 4 rows ( dashboard kind of a setup ) entered and when we hit save.. it will send this data into the second sheet into 4 columns..

    Sheet 1:

    OrderID: 3432
    Salesman: jack
    Product no: 920
    Qty: 9

    SAVE - Button ( when we hit on this the data is saved into the next sheet )


    Sheet 2:

    OrderID Salesman Productno Qty
    3432 Jack 920 9


    Can I enter the orderId on sheet one and have rest of the data populated if its already existing in the sheet2?

    Like orderID can be a list from which when I select 3432 it should bring up Salesman, Productno and Qty related to that which was saved already..


    If I can get a lead I will try working on it.. Please give me your suggestions.. Thank you

    This workbook will allow you to choose an orderID from the existing list, using the drop-down on cell B1, and you can edit the values and overwrite the existing data, or you can enter a new value, and add it to the database....

    Thanks for the reply Deitrick,

    Can we have the same functionality for multiple values?

    would I be able to enter multiple order ID's with other details and add them all to the database?

    I'm only trying to match my functionality to the document you posted.

    Thank you!
