Drop Down Menus
Hello,
I have a drop-down menu with a few selections and I want the next cell over to have a text based on what is selected from the drop-down menu. Can this be done?
So on cell B3 I selected 5, and I want the word Tom to populate on cell B4 based on that selection.
Thank you!

Mike Wilday ✭✭✭✭✭✭You would need to create an IF formula. Please note that smartsheets does not use column letters for its formulas but uses column names instead. Replace Column name B in the following formula, with your own column name and you will have a formula for the column and row 3. I nested an additional couple IF statements so you can add other statements and see how it goes.
=IF([Column Name B]3 = "5", "Tom, IF([Column Name B]3= 6, "John", IF(Column Name B]3 = 7, "Oscar")))
Here is more information on IF statements:https://help.smartsheet.com/function/if

JamesR ✭✭✭✭✭✭Cross Reference the data from another sheet.

Use a VLOOKUP to get the appropriate value from a separate Look up table.
