Question
Hi Aidan,
I have one worksheet that has a set of partnumbers with a certain qty needed.
I have a second worksheet with a database or partnumbers and their price breaks per qty.
For instance
Sheet one
Part Qty needed price
A1000 28 ???
A2000 50 ???
A3000 12 ???
Then database sheet has..
ColA B C D E F G H I J
Range Price range price range price
A1000 0-10 $1 11-20 $2 21-30 $3
A2000 0-35 $5 36-80 $3 81-200 $2
A3000 etc...
* The ranges are in their own individual cells.
Answer
The data doesn't come across very well via text, but my first question is how fixed is the database sheet in terms of layout - it would be EASIER I think if it had either the minimum or maximum quantity in the cells - it MIGHT also be easier if these values came first as a block and then the prices for each break point came in another block.
My email if it helps (which would allow emailing me a sample file) is aidan.heritage@virgin.net - I'm in the UK where it's just gone 11pm so I'm off to bed soon!
