I know how to use a form in Excel to add data to a spreadsheet. But how can you select a row and display that data in a form?

Put the whole shebang in a database.

Seriously. Databases are designed to store information, crunch information, and display information. Spreadsheets are not. Yes, they can, but that's the same as saying that a car can be used to pick up 8 foot 2x4's. It can, but it's not going to be as good as a truck.

Pick the right tool for the job. You'll be happier.
