Let's say I have one tab with just my formulas and then 3 tabs of data which
we'll call RED, BLUE, & GREEN. In cell A1 on my formula page I created a dropdown box using the List (Data\Validation). How do I make a formula, vlookup in this case, in cell B5 to that looks as A5 and refers to the sheetname in my dropdown box in cell A1 rather than the sheetname itself? In other words I want to be able to choose RED, BLUE, or GREEN in my dropdown box, and have my vlookup look in that selected tab. Currently I have the formula as =VLOOKUP(A5,RED!$A$1:$D$10,4,FALSE). I want the RED portion to correspond to my dropdown box. In actuality I only want part of my table array to change accordingly to my dropdown box. -Doug |
