Trying to make a conditional selection in Numbers
I am working with multiple currencies, each with a different exchange rate. Ideally I'd like to create a small table with the different currencies and their respective exchange rates. In my main table with different transactions with different currencies, I'd like to automate the conversion to $.
For example, table 1 (with two column)
Euro 1.05
GBP 1.50
SFR 0.99
Then table 2 (3 columns)
Transaction 1 Euro 10000
Transaction 2 SFR 10000
Ideally, I'd want to create a fourth column in table 2 that would, for each row, look at the currency cell and then retrieve the relevant exchange rate for that currency in table 1.
So in the first row of table 2 above, the solution would go to table 1, find the Euro row, and retrieve the corresponding number i.e. 1.05
Is this possible? I am currently doing this all by hand!
