Default Variable Cell Reference

Hi,

I'm using a lookup function where the values in cells C2:E2 are returned
from a whichever row of a separate table matches the value of B2 (a very
simple VLOOKUP).

Instead of having B2 as an absolute value, can I enter a formula that will
make B2 equal the value of whatever cell I select? For example, if the value
of A2 is 8 and I select it, then B2 becomes 8, or if the value of A5 is 120
and I select it, then B2 becomes 120?

I may not have explained this very well, but hopefully someone might be able
to help?

Thanks
