  Hello Experts

  In the attached file, the financial analysis sheet contains general 
information categorized by industry.what i want to achive in the  summary sheet 
is that from the drop down list that i hv created conyaining the various 
industries, i want the individual companies under those industries to populate 
anytime i select a particular industry, i tried using the choose and index 
function, i am only able to see rightly the first company (am assuming for 
instance in the breweries sector there is only one company and thats why i get 
that right), however all of the industries besides the breweris hv more than 
one companies under them,  what function or formula can help me achieve this. 
thanks.
