How to self populat cells with dropdown lists
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ufUm5VJDVeDfPgdmyOAl1yM4gmZ56eS7rTROmsoQ6vA/edit?usp=sharing

The sheet "AutopopulateValidation2" contains list of Objects and their Properties. Sheet "AutopopulateValidation1" contains same objects but randomly listed. The task is to find an object in sheet "AutopopulateValidation1" and populate 5 cells right of it with corresponding Properties (Like I did manually with the first row). Kind of VLOOKUP function but instead of returning a value, populate a range.  
Maybe there are a very easy solution which I don't now?
