Hi guys,

I've got a list of projects that each have a long comments field.

The projects are listed in cells A1:A10

What I want to be able to do is to click on one of the projects eg A4 and for the comments to be pulled into another cell such as B1.

I can do this easily enough with a vlookup based on a single dropdown list of the projects, but I've no idea how to do it by activating ie selecting a cell. Can this be done?
