I have a cover sheet with a drop down list which has customers in it. under it I have the customers address, phone etc. What I am trying to do is when I click on a particular customer, I want the address and phone numbers to all fill in automatically. I have tried a few things, but to no avail.

I am trying to build a complex equation that has multiple parameters filled by several choices from several different dropdown menus.
For instance:
I'm building a set of 5 dropdown menus, that each lead to filling certain boxes with a number created from a formula. I've provided a small sample to explain what I'm trying to do.
My problem is, I'm unsure of how to make it so certain drop down menus affect the information inside of the next. Like, I want to have someone select "Oscar" under the characters, and have the "Lances" list come up in the Weapons column menu. I don't want the Weapons menu to be selectable in any way unless a "Character" has been selected.

I'm creating a spreadsheet to keep track of my costs of production in an online game. Within the game there are a range of spawned resources that appear for only a short time before being unobtainable these resources have specific types that is shared between multiple spawns of the resource but each resource spawn has a unique name.
My first worksheet lists all the resources and their various qualities and the later worksheets are meant to allow me to choose from a list resources matching the requirements of the item I'm looking to craft. The example i have shown in the second picture requires Tatooinian Fiberplast and Lokian Wild Wheat to craft so in the Chosen Resource column I would like to have a drop down list allowing me to select the named resource type i would like to use - for Tatooinian Fiberplast the only thing on the list should be Omnitwixi and for the Wild Wheat it should show Fizi and Krad

I have a payroll spreadsheet and I want to highlight cells that have hours entered for vacation. For example, in cell E4 I put the job name which is "VACATION" and in cells G4 through M4 I put the hours in for each day. (G4 is Monday, H4 is Tuesday, etc.)
I tried to put a conditional formatting using the following formula ="IF(E4=""VACATION"")" then I chose the fill color however it is not working.

I need to create a data validation drop-down that is dependant on what has been selected in another drop-down. However, all the solutions I've come across online so far suggest using the INDIRECT function, which is not appropriate in my case. This is because the data upon which the two drop-downs are based on is itself dynamic. My specific situation is this:
In one sheet, I have a list of university names in one column, and in the next column a list of faculties. The same university can appear multiple times in the sheet (once for each different faculty at the university). This information will be added to regularly, with new universities and new faculties added often.
In another sheet, I want a drop-down in one column that takes its validation from the list of universities. I then want a second drop-down that is only populated with a list of faculties at that university. The INDIRECT solution seems to only work if I can define a static range of cells from which to draw this data. How do I do it in my situation above?

I'm creating a new spreadsheet for different fines we have as a football club.
I have a table frozen at the top which looks like this:
Fine 1 Fine 2 Fine 3
Player 1
Player 2
Player 3
Then also I have a list below this with the date and specific fines:
Date Player Fine Amount
(drop down (drop down Entered manually
list of players) list of fines)
I am wanting the amount of the fine to be entered into the table at the top of the spreadsheet automatically based on the 2 drop down list entries. I would also need the table to keep adding the fines together once new entries are made.

I am going to use excel for test cases. I can creat a drop down list with the selections "pass", "fail", "not run". That isn't a problem using the data validation toolbar. However I would like to basically color the cell (test case) with a certain color based on the drop down selection.
for instance:
Pass = Green
Fail = Red
Not run = Orange.

I have to create a series of drop down lists with choices on it for people at the company to fill out to see how much time they spent on each type of project. The plan is to have people fill out a "daily form" to see how much work they did that day, and have the results of that feed into a "monthly form" to sum up how much they worked that week. One of the aforementioned drop-down lists have them choose between three categories of work, M, N and B.
I have to make it so that in the monthly form, the results from the daily form segregate themselves into the different M, N and B tables in the monthly sheet. To make it more clear, on the daily sheet, there is just one huge table. For each row, they are to input what type of work they did, how long they worked, etc. On the monthly data table there are three different tables, one for M, one for N, and one for B. I want to have the entries from the daily spreadsheet to feed themselves into one of the three tables in the monthly spreadsheet depending on whether M, N or B was chosen.

We use excel for scheduling purposes and each and every day we fill out a floor chart with who is working that day. As it stands now we have to print out a template and hand write all names or type them in and print it out. What I would like to try and do is define each set of names and allow for easy access to auto fill these names. I feel it needs to be a simple process as not all of our managers experienced in excel or formulas. What I would like to try an accomplish is in sheet 1 cell A1 to be able to create a drop list or formula that that would let me return all the names for a given day.
For the purposes of this discussion we can just define each list as the day that is the header ( IE A2:A4 on sheet 2 would be defined as "monday". Also, I already have the names autofilled based off of what the our schedule has. I'm curious if I could create a drop down list with each day of the week as an option, and if they select Tuesday it will then return all the names defined as Tuesday in a column below.And the next day be able to return Wednesday names and so on.
I'm not stuck on it being a drop down list. Maybe if they could just type and =(defined name) in the box above and it would return all the names.
I have tried an =(defined name) and it does return the value but only for the first cell and it has to be in the same row for it to return the name. Which doesn't work because I would like the names that are being defined on a separate sheet.

I have a product list where each row of the worksheet has an image, product details and suggested lists/retails for each local currency.
Some products are not available in certain countries and each market doesn't care to see the other market info. (There are hundreds of items and dozens of countries.)
How can I create a drop down selector so that a user can choose their market, i.e. "Australia," and only the rows and columns relevant to them appear?
Can this be done without macros,? This sheet is distributed among 100+ people and needs to work for lowest common denominator.

Here's the spreadsheet I am talking about : [URL]
So as you can see each row = one day divided in 2 cycles of 12 hours : every 12 hours the cat gets a new injection of insulin (the columns "U" being the number of units of insulin the cat receives)
Now I want to turn this sheet into two different curves that would look like these : [URL]
As you can see the first graph shows data based on days (x) and insulin dose (y), while the second curves shows data based on days (x), and blood glucose values (y). This is basically the only way we could clearly see how the cat's disease is evolving over a long period of time.
If he had just started to take all these values from his cat I guess it would be simple to do, but since he already has a lot of data entered in his spreadsheet, I was wondering if I could use this data (and not write each number in a new document), to make things a little more simple and to avoid mistakes.

I created a drop down list for products my company sells. Now I am wondering how can I get Excel to display the cost of the item in another column so I do not have to type in the cost each time I bring that product up.
I have searched google and this site but of course I can't describe my search well enough to find what im looking for.
I'm sure this has been explained I just can't find the answer to my problem.

I need to be able to display a list of values from a drop down window. When the value in the drop down window is selected I need to have the data populated in the rows to the right of the drop down window. I have created the Drop Down using data validation in B12, I need C12 & D12 to auto fill with the info listed in H2 & I1 according to the item picked in the drop down.
I have tried to follow an example listed on the website but i keep getting a formula error.

Is it possible to assign values to names in a list, so that when you validate it as a drop-down list, you can select a name from the drop-down and it's corresponding value will be added to separate cell? Basically, I have survey questions which have five possible responses: Excellent - Very Good - Good - Fair - Poor. We want to assign a value to each, 5 for Excellent, 4 for Very Good and so on, so that when a response is selected from a drop-down, it's value appears in a separate cell (so that we can calculate a total and average score from the selections).

I want to control 2 cells values from a dropdown list (linked to another worksheet). How is it possible?
I can do it with embedded ifs as long as the number of values is not too big, but I want to get more extended.

Actually I plan to create an eRequisition Form for our branch sites. My focus would be the consumable items of Lexmark printers. I want to create cascading drop-down lists based on data table (worksheet : All) as per attached. From lots of examples I've seen in this or other similar forums, I notice that in order to allow this cascading to work is by creating column with header name identical with the input in the 1st List. But I'm thinking, if I need to do that, then there gonna be hundreds or maybe thousands columns to create as the number of branches are expanding, so I think tht should not be practical.
I found examples that shows how lookup 1 value can return multiple values but I totally cannot think of a way to allow those multiple values to be returned as dropdown list rather than displaying all in rows of the worksheet.
What I need is that, in 1st list, upon selecting the branch, it'll populate all items related to the branch and when selecting the item, it'll populate brand/model list for the particular item only. The input in the dropdown list should not have duplicates. Been trying using pivot to do this with macro that enables auto refresh once any changes made in the table.
create this cascading drop-down lists just based on the table as per attached? I really want to avoid having to create extra tables to allow this cascading to work.

In the attached spreadsheet I would like to create a list of part numbers if column D E & F all have a #N/A value. Right now I'm using a True/False but this list contains around 3000 items and I don't want to have to scroll down to find the True values. Is there a way I can just create a list of corresponding part numbers to the True Values?

I'm trying to write some VBA code to do the following (don't think its possible using formulas only). In column A i have a list of codes (A1:A32) in column B i have a value (between 1 and 32 in this case, but feasibly could be any integer) I am trying to achive an output in column C which would take the code from col A and then "count up to" the value in col B;- for example "AAA" in col A, and "4" in column B would return AAA1, AAA2, AAA3, AAA4 in column C. For the next code say BBB and corresponding value, would start its sequence in the next empty cell below AAA4 in col C.

I'm new to excel and was trying to make a workbook that will have a drop down list populate based on a user input in two separate cells. Basically, i have columns: name, pages, and books. I would like to have the drop down list match data by first finding the amount of books read, then finding the amount of pages read. Then any name that meets the criteria will be available in the drop down list. How can I do this?

The source data is collected using drop-down menus. In moving the data from one workbook to another, the drop-down lists are carried over into the destination cells. I have used both: paste special "values" and paste special "valuesandnumber formats". The code in the else statement produces the same result as the 2 step process above it.
