Default lookup and choose wih multiple tables of unequal column lengths

I need some help with the following:

I have the following tables as examples:

Table 1
Column "A" "B" "C"
"D"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Repair (With out Replacing) A103 Trans O\H C200
Troubleshoot & Switching A103 Dist O\H C303
Maint. Demand (emergency) A103 Dist U\G C304
Operate A103 Substation Dist C315
Replace in Kind A111 Substation Trans C203
Tree Trim A110 Services O/H C310
Sub Charts A376 Services U/G C311
Inspection A108
Maint. Planned A105

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table 2

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drafting \ Mapping A349 Trans O\H C200
Inspect \ Patrol A356 Dist O\H C303
Install A357 Dist U\G
C304
Elect Dist Integrated C305
Line Xfmrs C317
Services O/H C310
Services U/G C311

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If E1 = "Repair (With out replacing)" then F1 = "A103". In H1 I want to
show a list of column "C" table 1 (where "Repair with out replacing" came
from) that I can choose from and in I1 the corresponding Account number
should be displayed.. If G1 = "Install" then F1 = "A357". Cell I1 should
then display a list of column C table 2 (where "Install" came from) that I
can choose from and the corresponding account number should be displayed in
J1. The problem is I have 14 seperate tables with different numbers of
entries in columns A & C that are possible sources for cell E1. Any one got
any ideas on how I should go about solving this?
