Help with pop-up menu

Question

Im haveing a hard time figuring out how to make a pop-up mene i created work correctly. I what to have a pop-up menu that will let you select a type of item, and return the items associate cost in the adjacent cell.
Exaple:
select option 1-3 in cell "A" and return values x,y & z in cell "B".
I figured out how to create the pop-up in cell "a" but cant seam to fugure out how to give each of the options a seperate value that appears in "b".

Answer 1

Assuming the pop up is in B1:
you could enter the following formula in C1:
=IF(B1=1, "A", IF(B1=2, "B", IF(B1=3, "C", "")))
This will result in the following:
B1 = 1,  C1 will return "A"
B1 = 2,  C1 will return "B"
B1 = 3,  C1 will return "C"
This method is ok for a small translation set.  Much larger and it is hard to change and update.  So the next method is to recognize if there is a pattern.  If there is no pattern then you can make a translation table:
In this case you look up the value "3" in the Data table (column 1) and return the corresponding value from a different cell in the same row (column 2):
B3=VLOOKUP(A1, Data :: A:B, 2, 0)
I hope this helps,
