Hi,

I was just wondering is there was a way to Select a project name from a drop down list, then match its name up with the name of a table, and the table will appear on a worksheet.

Eg;
Project NumberProject Name
C2269Spring Farm

<tbody>
</tbody>

<tbody>
</tbody>

When the table says Spring Farm, a ready made table (below) will appear.
Spring Farm
10/05/20112
23/05/20118

<tbody>
</tbody><colgroup><col><col></colgroup>

<tbody>
</tbody><colgroup><col><col></colgroup>

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
There are several possible approaches:
  1. Have the tables on a worksheet and have the drop-down cell feed a cell with a HYPERLINK() formula. You pick the table name and then click on the hyperlink.
  2. Using an event macro, detect the pull-down selection and copy the table to an adjacent area.
  3. Using an event macro, detect the pull-down selection and display the appropriate table as a Picture.
