I am trying to figure out how to populate a column from 1 sheet to another. Sheet 1 has about 39 columns that can contain a bunch of different quantities. I have 2 drop down menus right now that will select which column to activate. One box is location and the other is month. For example I will have a cell that will say LOCATION JAN voc report 2020. The “location” and “jan” will change depending on selection.

What I want to do is have a button that I click that will find which column I want based on the above, then take those numbers and multiply by a multiplier then add to another sheet.

I also have a pivot table the runs on some of the data that I need to move over as well.

Right now I have 39 different sheet 2 and I want to bring that down to 1.

I am thinking some sort of VLOOKUP but I don’t know the right way to write it so I don’t have use a formula on every cell.

If I have to use a formula on each cell, I am thinking something along the lines of an IF statement, but I don’t think office 365 will allow 39+ nested if statements.

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
