I need to populate a heading on an excel spreadsheet based on a value keyed
by a user. It can be one of 12 values keyed in. How can I code the heading
to appear based on the chouice selected by the user?

Do a Lookup of the keyed-in value. See Vlookup, Hlookup, Lookup functions.

Use =VLOOKUP()

See Excel Help on this function

Assume the user enters a value between 1 and 12 inclusive into cell
A1. You could use this in another cell to return your heading:

=CHOOSE(A1,"One","Two","Three","Four","Five","Six" ,"Seven","Eight","Nine","Ten","Eleven","Twelve" )

Of course, you should substitute the headings you want for the
"numbers".

Hope this helps.
