    Question Change Data Area as Drop Down Selection changes

    I have attached a Sample Excel Sheet for more hands on help.

    The Drop Down Selection Menu I am using is the one by Skill. I want the Data Area (cells surrounded by a border) to change as I change the Skill. I have added information on Sheet2 for information on what is to show when Skill is changed from Agility to Construction.

    I know I can use the Vlookup Formula, however I am not sure how to do this when the data will encompass 3 columns (Name, Lvl and Base XP) and multiple columns.

    Hello my friend.

    I've made another sheet named "Data" and put all the information there

    Then used this formula to B12:B33:

    Where is teh data in that table coming from? The only real difference I see is what you have changed the contents to?
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    I am not exactly sure what you want to know. However, Gatti has already helped solve what I wanted.

    Glad to help!

    He asked for the sheet I've created... To do INDEX/MATCH or even the OFFSET/MATCH, you should have a sheet with the data

    If possible add reputation
