Type in a sku in column a row 1 and have excel fill in multiple cells across the row

Hi,


I would like to be able to type in a sku (I have a database already created, just need to know how to implement it) and have excel fill in multiple cells across a row in each column.  Here is an example:

 

               SKU                                    Product    Description                  Condition               

I enter:  12345678   Excel fills in:    Gadget      Gadget that gadgets      Recycled     

I enter:  23456789   Excel fills in:    Gizmo        Gizmo that gizmos        Brand New

 

I appreciate your input.  I tried reading up on this and watching the videos but they weren't for this type of VLOOKUP ... it was for typing in multiple criteria in multiple cells and I just want to type in the sku and have it fill in the rest of the data.

 

Thank you in advance.

 

J

    Let's say your database looks like this, on a sheet named Product List.

    On another sheet, you enter a SKU in A2 and down.

    In B2:

    =XLOOKUP(A2, 'Product List'!$A$2:$A$1000, 'Product List'!$B$2:$D$1000, "")

    Fill down.
