Automatically populating a cell
mvg
✭
Hi everyone. Some help please.
I've been through index match but I don't think it's what I want. What I want to do is...
- Someone submits a form with one of the fields being "sub job", selected from a dropdown.
- Once I go into the spreadsheet after the form is submitted, I want the adjacent "WD no" column to be automatically populated.
- I want it to be automatically populated from another sheet, based on the "sub job" form entry.
Thanks

It would be an INDEX/MATCH.
=INDEX({Reference Sheet WD no Column}, MATCH([Sub job]@row, {Reference Sheet CT subjob Column}, 0))
