Query data based on header names
I have a large array of data in one sheet which I want to summarize in a second sheet.

I need a formula to bring across data depending what header is in the first row.

So in the example sheet linked below I would like to insert a formula in Summary!A2 that will bring through data for all three columns that have the same header in the corresponding data sheet no matter what order they are in.

I have previously just used a formula in each column but now have many data sheets that have header names in different places and it makes merging the data difficult.

thanks in advance for any help
