I would like to know how to set up main sheet to contain hyperlinks to the other sheet or a drop down menu to select a particular sheet

Your assistance is most appreciated
 

Excel Facts

Select a hidden cell
Somehide hide payroll data in column G? Press F5. Type G1. Enter. Look in formula bar while you arrow down through G.
Hyperlinks is easy enough. Put this formula in A1:

=HYPERLINK("#Sheet2!A1")

The # is a shortcut meaning "this workbook". If you want a hyperlink to another workbook, you'd need to put the full path/file name in. You should be able to see how to change that to point to other sheets. So you could have 10 hyperlinks to 10 sheets.

If you don't want that many, you could set up a drop down menu. Using Data Validation, set up a rule with a list of all your sheet names. Put it in B1 (for example). Then in C1 you could have this formula:

=HYPERLINK("#"&B1&"!A1","Go!")

Selecting the dropdown would allow you to pick the sheet, then click on the hyperlink to go there.

Hope this helps!
