Am sure this is very easy but I'm having a complete mental block!!
What's the formula to put into the yellow cells to give the results shown - it's looking up the headers in B3:K3, finding the header that matches the one input in N3:W3, and then returning the cell content in the same row. The headers in both tables are variable and can change positions in the tables.
Many thanks

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
=INDEX($B5:$G5,MATCH(N$3,$B$3:$G$3,0))

in N5, copy down and across

Brilliant, thanks, have extended the range to K and it works great :)
