    Unhappy Quotation from a pricing data base

    I am in sales, when I visit a client to give them a quotation on any number of items I use the following...

    a) I have a pricing spreadsheet (Spreadsheet #1) that lists dollar amounts based on the size of the item in question; you take the width and look across the chart, take the height and look down, where they meet gives you a dollar amount...

    b) I have a 'quotation' spreadsheet (Spreadsheet #2) that I type in the item description, colour, quantity etc. and I type in the size of the item; unfortunately, I then have to manually refer to Spreadsheet #1 for the dollar value. The quotation spreadsheet then automatically calculates the rest...

    I would like, when I type in the sizes (that are the reference to the Pricing spreadsheet) to have the dollar amount automatically appear where I have previously had to enter manually.

    Can you please help?

    Re: $ quotation from a pricing data base - item reference is width x Height

    Hello comgames,

    Welcome to the Forum!

    Check out how to create and use row and column labels on a worksheet. By using the row label and column label in a formula, you can return the value of the cell where they intersect.
    Sincerely,

    Remember To Do the Following....

    1. Use code tags. Place [CODE] before the first line of code and [/CODE] after the last line of code.
