- In this video, I show you how to insert a drop-down box in an order form in Excel and use VLookup to auto-fill the contact info fields. This is a great way to select a customer number and have all of the address fields auto-fill. It's pretty simple once you get the hang of it!

Annoyingly enough I found this just _after_ I had learnt about validation and VLookup, but this is a much more concise and easier-to-follow explanation than what I had to sit through.

Time saving tips👌🏼
THANK YOUUUU OMG THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR
Many thanks for sharing. Much appreciated.
Thank you, it is very helpful and very clear instructions,
Great video! I learned how to do this and then learned how to use the MATCH function to make the column index dynamic. Saved me a load of time after setting it all up!
So is the Match function better than VlookUp? Im trying to understand the differences.
@@randomrandy3059 It depends on what you're doing and personal preference. But you can use them together. Basically, as long as you're headers are the same, you'd be using the MATCH function to find the column index number for you. I do find that I've been using a combo of INDEX and MATCH more frequently. Keep learning, once you get the hang of it, you'll want to move onto other ways to do the same tasks faster (depending on how much data you're working with).
@@nguyen3276 Cool. I can't wait to understand more. I have since gotten the hang of index and match, but im finding xlookup to be more convenient, but then I have to come back to index and match. It confusing at first, but like you say "Keep learning...."
quick run down, I've hosted a football pool for 5 years after this season. I've always used numbers because it was simple. I knew about Excel but never bothered to get into it because, well, I thought Excel was very complex for something so simple that I was doing. A few months I decided to cross over, forcing myself to use and learn excel during the season, and man how mind opening it was for me. I started looking at my simple football pool and it was alot of work. Now im building a system to automate alot of things, and really make simple.
Anyhow, thank you, and have a good day.
Amazing help. Thank you !!
Excellent and remarkable learning video, thank you for your magnificent efforts.. Fantastic explanation.

Sally... Thank you so much.. really saved my mental stability :D :D :D
Hey Sally, I liked the video, simple and easy to understand, i have a daily log book of material received and i have a daily material receive/consumption as per site book, i want to use data validation for date wherein i can choose the date and it shows me the record of material received and consumption in a single sheet. I have two different sheet of the material received and consumption.
Extremely awesome
I love the way u explain n help ... Thumbs up n subscribed
You are a lifesaver. Thanks so much for this
Glad it was helpful to you!
Thank you so much, this video was very helpful! I was wondering if there is a way to auto-populate with multiple selection drop-downs. Once I select two drop-downs within the same cell, I get an error message in my auto-populated cells. I'm using this as a tracker, and would like to have the option to select multiple items from the drop downs to avoid having too many cells.
Awesome & easy to get
This made the anxiety bubble in my head deflate. Thank you
youre amazing thank you for the content.
really you saved my day! thanks alot
Thanks for the help.
Thank you! I created a dynamic list of customer’s names and used this as my drop-down box. I used vlookup for the remaining data but found I had to limit the range.
This was helpful Thank you :)
Great presentation
Thanks, it was helpful
I like how you teach :)
Thank you for your help
Great Video!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!
Fantastic video. This is exactly what I was looking for. I do have a question for something that I would like to do. Can you show how that I can make a number that is in a drop down list show as a different color than all the others in the same drop down list so that it is easier to find than all of the black numbers. I want it to stand out so that I can find it quickly.
You are my hero!!!
Great tutorial Sally Ulianich
Hey Sally, thanks for the great video! It answered most of my questions very well, but I do have an additional question that would take this tutorial a step further. I have a sheet used to create user rights on RFID chips. Most instances can be taken care of by using a table referencing the rights to the job type (Vlookup), however, sometimes I need to break from that set table and create a custom set of rights. Is there anyway I can do a custom field entry on a vlookup cell without adding it to the table? Thanks in advance and I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks for this tutorial ...i need more guide. I want that not only this formula and list work for only one customer but also need for other when i select other account on bottom cell ..as i have to made list in bottom all cell and select other account and their respective details ...how i can get this ..
Hi,, Sally, your videos are really nice and helpful. here I need to know that how to create a dropdown list which can display relevant data of that item available in other columns too.
thank god, it helps me alot
