The secretaries at my school are in the process of typing up coop orders =
for next years purchases.  They do it in a spreadsheet.  They are using =
the same items over and over many times.  I was wondering if anyone knows =
how merge a database of the vendors, item numbers, descriptions,  and cost =
per unit into the spreadsheet.  What I was trying to do is they could type =
in the item number and the description and unit cost would then appear in =
the appropriate cells.  I've spent a day trying to figure it out to no =
avail.  I was hoping someone out there may have done this before and could =
lead me in the right direction.  TIA
