Automatic update of adjacent columns

ZayoFSCentral54066

I have a % Complete column and a Status column adjacent to each other.  I would like to automatically set the % Complete to 100% if I change the Status column (drop-down) to complete.  Is this possible?

=IF(Status26 = "7 - Closed", 1, IF(Status26 = "2 - In Progress (Active)", 0.5))

 

the catch is that you can't put both a manual value or a calculated value (as above)...  Maybe if you use a "hidden" column to store the formula somehow...  Perhaps this puts you on the right track regardless... good luck!
