    Question Reusable drop down menu to populate data

    Ok I'm making a job cost sheet for my boss so that he can enter in the information for a job and have it calculate out the total for him.
    I'm trying to make this as fool proof and simple as possible since he's not very good with computers.

    I'd like to create a drop down list so that he can select an employee name and it will automatically input the pay rate in the cell to the right.


    So in my sheet I have created the drop down list in column (G) with the list of employees in the "dataValidation" worksheet.

    I want him to be able to select an employee in the (G) column (i.e. G4) and then have it insert the correct pay rate in the the (H) column (i.e. H4) so that when he enter the hours (in the I column) it will calculate out the total in column J.

    He needs to be able to reuse this drop down list also for multiple employees going to a job so I'm guessing I'm going to need to use a macro somehow?

    Any help would be great!
