A given table:

[TABLE="width: 50"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]A[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]B[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]C[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]D[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]E[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]F[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]1[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]H[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]1[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]2[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]H[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]3[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]H[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]4[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]H[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Depending on a value I do want to change the values in col-1, 2, 3 or 4. Lets say:
A1, A2, A3 & A4 contains the formula: IF($F$1=1;"H";"")
B1, B2, B3 & B4 contains the formula: IF($F$1=2;"R";"")

By changing the value of F1 in 2 the table will looks like:

[TABLE="width: 50"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]A[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]B[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]C[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]D[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]E[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]F[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]1[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]R[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]2[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]2[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]R[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]3[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]R[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]4[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]R[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

But I want it to be:

[TABLE="width: 50"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]A[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]B[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]C[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]D[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]E[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]F[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]1[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]H[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]R[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]2[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]2[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]H[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]R[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]3[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]H[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]R[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]4[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]H[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]R[/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Is there a way to achieve this?​
