    Display column based on dropdown

    Hi, I have column 1 with a dropdown field in a cell, columns to the left have dropdown field names like forumula1, forumula2,forumula3,forumula4

    Below are rows with data.

    Please see attached file to see what I mean. I tried using hlookup but it does not work.

    Try this formula in D8, and fill down

    =HLOOKUP($D$7,$E$7:$H$28,ROWS(D$7:D8),0)
