Reference
I'm trying to get a cell to reference a cell which will display a different
cell depending on the number displayed in the reference cell. Ex. Ref Answer 1(1) Answer 2(2) Answer 3(3) display this cell display this cell display this cell options of ref 1 or 2 or 3 have answer here I hope this makes sense. I originally used =LOOKUP(1,A7,C3), then I get stuck, am I on the right path (right formula)? |

Reference
Your example is not very clear. Try describing to us what the number outside of the parentheses means and what the number inside the parentheses means (row/column maybe?). Where is the Ref at (in A7 maybe)?

Hi,
If the cell where you enter ref (1, 2 or 3) is A1 and the answers should be staggered then: =IF(A1=1,"Answer 1","") in B2 =IF(A1=2,"Answer 2","") in C3 =IF(A1=3,"Answer 3","") in D4 -- If this helps, please click the Yes button Cheers, Shane Devenshire "Kmart03" wrote: I'm trying to get a cell to reference a cell which will display a different cell depending on the number displayed in the reference cell.
