Dear all,
Column A contains building work items decriptions in text: Excavate, Build Wall... Columns C-Z contain differrent projects with corresponding associated quantities for each item Columns C-Z also have an option button over their headings. The option buttons are group with their link cell located in cell B1. The output of the option buttons are therefore 1-24. Based on the option box selected I wish to copy that projects data into column B so that just columns A& B can be printed. I can obviously create a massivley long IF, within an If statement for each of the cells in coumn B: =IF(B1=1,C4,IF(B1=2,D2,IF(B1=3,E4,IF(... IF(B1=24,Z24,"Error")))... However this is clearly not the best apprach to fulfill my aim. Any ideas? Help much appreaciated, thank-you. Kind regards, Neil |

Coeey all, please don't waste your time on this...
=INDEX($C$4:$Z$104,ROW()-3,$B$1) Worked nicely. "Neil Pearce" wrote: Dear all, Column A contains building work items decriptions in text: Excavate, Build Wall...

you can do this... Make a table with your 1 - 24 in, say, column D and your
cell references in column E. So, D2 is 1, E2 is C4... then, in column B, type =INDIRECT(VLOOKUP(C2,D:E,2,0)) "Neil Pearce" wrote: Dear all, Column A contains building work items decriptions in text: Excavate, Build Wall...
