I have here an example of how I might extract data from a source workbook and paste it onto a template workbook, using autofilter to find the rows that are needed. It is currently set-up to take rows that match "AREA 1" or "AREA 2" in column A, along with a number of other criteria in other columns.
What I want to do is add into this macro, a way for the user to be able to choose the filter options will be used for column A of the source workbook. So if they want only "AREA 1", they can choose just that, or if they want "AREA 2", or perhaps both "AREA 1" & "AREA 2", or further additional options. They need to be able to specify just one, multiple, or all of the filter options with regards to column A of the source data.
In effect what I need is a user input box or form with a dropdown menu that will give the filter choices based on column A of the source data, and then for the code that copies the data across, to do so based on which choices the user makes in the filter menu of the input box.
I have uploaded examples of the source data workbook and the target template workbook. The macro exists within the template workbook.
[Code] .....
How it may be possible for the user to be able to specify, one, multiple, or all available filter options for column A of the source data, via a user input box or form.

I created a dropdown menu, that asks you make a choice from a list.
"Under 5"
"Between 5 and 10"
"Over 10"
However I want to connect the choice to a certain number and use it for a formula. For example:
"Under 5" is equal to 1
"Between 5 and 10" is equal to 2
"Over 10" is equal to 3
So if I make a formula to multiply the cell that says Under 5, excel to understand it is actually the digit 1.

On sheet 1, I have dates in column A, then numbers under LabA through C. On sheet 2, I would like the contents of columns B, C, D to autofill when entered. However, I would like to display only the last entry. For example, Lab A (column B) is currently showing "7" in cell B6, if I enter a number in B7, I would like for sheet 2 to autoupdate cell B3 and display that new entry instead of the "7".

I am limiting choices in a certain cell to a list via data validation (using data validation, allow - list and pointing to the source). I want to limit the next set of choices in the next column (in this example in Column C) for the user based on the choice made in the adjoining cell. For example to keep it simple I will use the following: if the user selected "Fruit" in B1, then the options in C1 would only show "Oranges","Apples", "Pears". If however the user selected "Veg" it would only show "Cucumber", "Lettuce", "Spinach", "Radishes" in the drop down in column C. I can put a prefix in front of the column C data validation list if that is needed to narrow down e.g. FR-oranges, FR-apples etc.
A B C
1 Fruit Oranges
2 Veg Lettuce
3
Data Validation source for Column B (H2:H4)
Fruit
Veg
Nuts
Data Validation for Column C: (I2:I10)
Oranges
Apples
Pears
Cucumber
Lettuce
Spinach
Radishes
Almonds
Peanuts

I am trying to create a sheet for identifying work hazards based on the job assigned. So what I have set up is a drop down list to select the job type. Once this job type is selected I want the pre written hazards to autopopulate in the hazard box. I would also like the required PPE to appear in the PPE box for the job selected.
I have 6 different choices in the drop down list. For each choice I have the hazards and PPE in a separate sheets in the worksheet.
Is there a way to get this information to autopopulate?

A1
A2
A3
A3
A1
A2
G5
G5
101
5000

Is it possible to have this columm filtered to return a dropdown list say in Cell B1 to show only unique numbers? In the case above would return;
A1
A2
A3
G5
101
5000
4574

I have a document to track funding and would like to be able to auto-populate individual task sheets within the workbook based on a task drop-down. So if I choose Safety from the "Task Area" drop down it would auto populate the full row from the Master Sheet to the Safety Sheet. I have uploaded my document so you can better understand.

I'm trying to create a rental data base. The Items in question have 2 details, a Pokemon and a Gender. Each item also has a location but this changes.
So far the search formula works nicely, but there needs to be some way to know what items have been removed from their locations.
There needs to be some way to change the location on the 'database' sheet layer to "OUT" from the 'search' sheet layer.
E.g. (on the example file attached)
In a perfect world I would like to be able to search for a couple of pokemon, then to click on "pokeball GO!!!" and for this to change the location to "out" on the 'database' sheet layer.

What I want to do is if I add data into B7 or F7 then the current date will appear in J7. I also don't want the date to change every time the project is opened.
Thus,
If I enter "withdraw or any word" into B7 or F7 - The current date (4-Dec) would appear in J7.
then if I close excel and I open it tomorrow, J7 would still read as 4-Dec, while if I enter "deposit or any word" into B8 or F8, the current date (5-Dec) would appear in J8.
- would need to be able to enter multiple entries on one day as well.
- also i am not familiar regarding macros.

I am looking to create a macro that will create a new sheet when data is added on a summary sheet. Example.
1. Summary sheet called "Variations" contains columns that will contain the information needed for new sheet (Columns A to D)
2. When data is entered on "Variations" sheet: Column B, then macro automatically creates new sheet renamed to e.g. VO1 (Number used on "Variations" tab) and is a copy of "Master" tab.
3. Data entered in Column A to D on "Variations" tab is automatically entered onto new sheet created (e.g VO1). Shown is blue on attached file. Additional data is updated on "VO1" sheet and this then links back to "Variations" tab

I'm trying to make a spreadsheet that can be used to easily build a collective list of steps, for a user to read and follow line-by-line.
I want a source sheet of "steps" that I can change over time, and the resulting tabs that reference the source sheet get updated/populated automatically.
I've pieced together some VBA code from other sources, which kind of does what I want it to:
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Row > 1 And Target.Column = 1 Then
Dim SourceSheet As Worksheet
Set SourceSheet = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Steps")
Dim TargetSheet As Worksheet
Set TargetSheet = Target.Worksheet
Dim c As Integer
Dim Source As Range
[Code]...
But there are some problems:
1) The data auto-populates into a row. It would read better if each step was in the same column, meaning rows would need to be automatically added upon selecting something from the drop-down list. The number of rows that need to be added vary based on the number of steps in the source sheet, for the selection made from the drop-down list.
2) If you make a change to the source sheet, my goal is to have the other sheets referencing the source sheet's lists of steps update automatically, so you only need to update the steps in one spot and everything you've built from them gets updated instantly. Currently, you must select a different choice from the drop-down list, and then change it back, before it populates the "new" steps from the source sheet.
This is my first time using VBA.
What I have so far is attached: testAutoPopulate.xlsm

I have several data val drop down lists, that all have the same input, but for some reason, the first entry in the list will not save to the worksheet. When chosen, after being saved and closed out, the entry disappears when the document is re-opened.
Furthermore, the drop down lists that are linked to another cell WILL save the first entry when chosen.
Is this a programming issue?
