    Change the data set your Vlookup's pull from Via a drop box

    I'll try to explain this the best I can. Basically I have multiple tabs in a work book (Banks, Schools, Restaurants, Shopping center). The tabs has a list of services (HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing, Welding Etc.) and a $/sqft. So basically the average Banks, schools and restaurants will have different $/sqft when it comes to the services. I need to know if there is a way that I can insert a drop box to change which set of data my vlookup is pulling in.

    I used a macro to get all data to a consolidated sheet.

    After that i used a pivot table to show the data.

    You can also use sumproduct for that.

    You can also use Vlookup to get the data on another sheet.

    See the attached file.
