    dynamic list using offset and indirect

    I created a dynamic drop down list that has the five items to select from. when i select a category i want it to show the three corresponding data sets that go with only that item. I tried an offset with indirect function ( =offset(indirect("$S$4),0,0 ) but i can not get it to work. Ive attached my file with only two rows but they will always be expanding.

    when you select "n-feed" from the drop down the numbers 14.3 2.0 2.0 should appear to the right, and under it 12.9 3.6 3.6. and also the date! thanks

    I suggest you first get rid of the merged cells ,which are nothing but trouble, first.

    consider them gone! I just can not get the indirect function to refer to the dynamic list. It instead is referencing "S4" where the drop down list is
