Please provide sufficient information. "I want to enter a formula in a Cell" doesn't tell us much.

And what do you mean by "remove the Protected sheet"?
Best wishes,
Hans

Sorry about that, Hans. Please refer to work sheet named est-wt
1. Cell J9 has a formula that is entered manually in formula bar. There is currently no link between the formula and the Drop down box values in Cells C5 to C9.

The current drop down selections are
Filler--> Flat --> StandardFold --> One Side --> Circular and the formula is in J9 is "=(I9*(G9*3.14+F9+8)/100)"

Problem Statement: If the drop down selection changes to a different combination such as
Filler--> Flat --> J Fold --> One Side --> Circular
I would like to have a different formula in J9 such as "=(I9*(G9*3.14+F9+15)/105)"

I will have a table of formulas for every combination in a tabular manner which can be used as V-Lookup.

2. Please ignore about "Protected Sheet"

Thanks and Best regards
Vilas Desai
