Basically I have a form where the list can expand and contract so there will always be varying row lengths.
What I would like to see is a drop down list that shows a) the actual populated field and b) a description of the field when the drop down list is present.
I believe this can be done with a combo box however that would be a lot of work.
In the following extract, I would like to have today's date placed into Col K when an entry is made into Col J.
Entry into Col J is from a validation list of 3 options. What I desire is that when one of these options is selected ("Complete"), then I would like today's date to be written into Col K.
Currently Col K has a validation list which comprises dates from 1st of each month from July to June.
I need a fixed date as text preferably, so was thinking the VBA function "Date" on a Change Workbook Sub.
The information is currently part of a Table in Excel 2007 that has about 500 records.

I have a dropdown list selection on the form for types of machines. The list of machines, their sizes and related noise level are in a chart on worksheet 2 and I'd like to automate the form so that when the machine is selected, the related noise level auto populates.
The dropdown box has been put in the form using the data validation function.
was having a look and cannot find the question to this answer.
1,what i have done is made a workbook with a user form to input data (customer id is the unique record)
i now want to create a form where i can put the customer id in and tell it to show me that customers details and i can edit.
i have various textboxes/ combo boxes/ check boxes in the input form and i want all these to be included on the review form (for updating and changing the existing data).
2, also if possiable i will add a sheet with dates for deadline to cancel, can i get this to show on the new input form is it is to late to cancel?
This sheet is comprised of 3 different section. The purple section is an input field. Quantities are added based on product type and date. The blue section is a breakdown of all the individual parts that go into the specific product. The green section is a breakdown of all the possible parts in the entire product range.
What I would like is to populate the green field individual part # with the appropriate sum from all the different product types based on quantities desired. I'm sure this is a confusing description but it will make more sense once you check out the sheet.
i have two fields with dates - one field A1 for date authorised (for a data request) and one field B1 for date actioned (data request)
i need a formula to populate in C1 the following:
if A1 is blank then C1 is 'not actioned'
if B1 is blank then C1 is 'not complete'
if both contain dates then C1 to calculate the number of working days between the dates eg. A1 10.08.09, B1 11.08.09...C1 = 1 working day
I have a tab called 'Tab1' in which I have column called 'Col1' and 'Col2'.
I have another tab called 'Tab 2' with columns 'ColA' and 'ColB'. When I enter a text in Col1(Tab1) I would like that text to be compared to data in 'ColA' from Tab 2 and when match found then get the corresponding value from ColB and autopopulate it in Col2 of Tab1.
I have to input data into "ANYDATA" field. Since I need this input to be 100% accurate, I would like my operator to input it TWICE. E.g. 1st input - Obama 2nd input- Obama. Only if BOTH the entries match will the data move into ANYDATA field, else the field becomes blank once again, and the operator has to re-key twice again. In example above, if he had input 2nd time as Obame, then he will have to repeat the process. Can anyone pls help me create suitable formula/ field settings...Thx! Preferably, I would NOT like to create two dummy fields "ANYDATA1" and "ANYDATA2" with corresponding entry in "ANYDATA" if both match.
p.s. Need this to be done using MS-Excel only.

I have a cell with data validation that I would like to look at table and be dynamic rather than a manual selection. So when I add to the list the data validation will reconise there are more options.
View 7 Replies View RelatedHow can I select a particular data item in a data validation cell. My requirement is that I need a particular item to be displayed in data validation cell(I already have the item value with me)
I tried recording but it doesnt work.
I want to load the actual data exist in the rows by selection value from the data validation list.
E.g I have two worksheet in one excel file. One has a data activities of persons with their name like two columns i have in which one exist the name of person and second exist the activities which they perform.
On the second sheet, i made a data validation list of all the person names
Now my requirement is, when i select a person name from the list, load all the data from the 1st sheet to second sheet. Is this possible without VB code, because I want to share it on the Google sheet with my boss, where VB sheet is not supposed to work.
I have a question on how I could populate data using a combo box selection in Excel 2010.
For example, I have a table with values in Sheet 1, & below that table there is a combo box whereby another table of values can be populated based on the selection of the combo box.
Maybe to make it clearer...
Table 1
Name | Address | Phone number
Andy | Avenue 2 | 999
John | Road 5 | 998
Combo box (selection of names): John
Data derived from combo box - Table 2
Name | Address | Phone number
John | Road 5 | 998
how I could solve this Also, do let me know if this can be done without the use of VBA.
I have two fields that do the same thing [preset selection vs custom entry], and I need to restrict one from holding any data if the other already does. One field is a drop-down menu, and the other is a decimal entry. It was easy to restrict the decimal from being entered if a drop-down selection has already been made - Data Validation prevents any entry unless the drop-down cell is blank. It's not so easy to restrict the drop-down, however, as it already uses List-type Data Validation to allow only values from a specified range.
Does anyone have any ideas for allowing the drop-down to function as normal if a specific other field or range is blank, but not allowing a selection to be made if that specific field or range already has data in it? I've attached a simplified example worksheet.
I would like to populate data from 1st File(Name:-Master Data) to the 2nd File(Name:-Calculator) using validation list in the 2nd file in such a way that once the Incentive Calculation is done for any store the same data should get populated to the 3rd File(Nameay Out) automatically without manual copying & pasting.
1)Master Data File(1st File):-Contains all the relevant raw data for incentive calculation.
2)Calculator File(2nd File):-Contains a drop-down validation in cell D4(in the sheet Named:-Hyper) and this drop-down contains the list of the stores starting from H001 to H032. I have got the Sumproduct formula to link Master Data File & Calculator File via this Drop-Down list which is yielding the Incentive Amount.
3)PayOut File(3rd File):-This is the where the storewise Incentive amount should finally be stored. I need help in keeping the respective storewise Incentive amount to respective locations even though different store is selected in the Drop Down Validation in the Calculator File.
I will share a small data pertaining to 2nd File(Name:-Calculator) & 3rd File(Nameay-Out) to further explain of what result is expected.
The following figure shows the results of H012 store(when selected via the Drop-Down validation):-
File Name:-Calculator.xls(Sheet Name:-Hyper)
Drop-Down List(=D4)Contains the Store names & links the Calculator File & Master Data File.
H012(D4)
Particulars(B7)Month1(C7)FMCG Sales Target12884356FMCG Sales Achievement17748294
C8=SUMPRODUCT(--('[Master Data.XLS]FMCG'!$D$6:$D$221=$D$4),'[Master Data.XLS]FMCG'!$H$6:$H$221)
C9=SUMPRODUCT(--('[Master Data.XLS]FMCG'!$D$6:$D$221=$D$4),'[Master Data.XLS]FMCG'!$I$6:$I$221)
The Above Sales & Target achievement for store H012(for FMCG Department) yields the Incentive amount in the same Calculator File(Sheet Name:-Hyper) as follows:-
Department(B17)Designation(C17)Incentive Details(D17)Month1(E17)FMCGFloor ManagerIncentive4641FMCGSupervisorIncentive3370FMCGStaffIncentive2276
Now finally the data from the above Incentive Calculation should get populated to the 3rd file named Payout(Sheet name:-Sheet1) as follows:-
Month1Store Name(A2)Staff Incentive(B2)Supervisor Incentive(C2)Floor Manager Incentive(D2)H012227633704641H013 H014
H015
Now suppose If I select H013 from the drop-down cell in Calculator file the incentive amount should get calculated and the same should get transferred to the Pay-Out Sheet below the H012 store incentive amount without changing or altering the H012 incentive calculation and so on for H014/H015 etc.
I have a large set of data that I need to use for data validation in drop down lists. The data is arranged in 4 columns and entries within each column may repeat numerous times. The four columns are as this..
Category Subcategory 1 Subcategory2 Subcategory3
The first data validation will come from the first column. Once this is chosen the second drop down should populate with the subcategory that correspond to that category stored in column 2. once that is chosen the thrid data validation should populate with the corresponding subcategory from column three etc.. This is a small sample of the data in the columns.
I have researched and used some code that allows the user to select mutliple items from a list. This is using the Data Validation tool with a list and some code in the relavent sheet. It all works well and as described.
However, when I lock the Worksheet, the multi selection no longer works. Selection cells are ofcourse unlocked when sheet is protected.
I have also trialed unlocking the whole row that the multi selection exists in, no effect.
My understanding of this code is at about 50%.
Is there a way of being able to lock the sheet and retain this ability of multi selection. Maybe there is some other code I could refer too?
Code:

I am trying to find something that would allow me to have a spreadsheet clear the contents of a certain cell based on the selection made from a data validation list which resides on the same row. This can best be described with an example.
The user selects anything but " " or "none" from the validation list, which for this example resides in C5, would trigger code to clear the contents, if any, in AA5. If " " or "none" is chosen the value remains.
This capability should be available for each row through 100.
I need someone to go through them assigning a building number, level and location to each of them. I am using drop down menus, the first choice is building and has the following options:
B1
B2
B3
B4A
B4B
B5
B7
Depending on the option selected there maybe different locations, i.e. B1 has the following available locations:
1-4
4-16
MER
ALL
KIT
Whereas B7 only has: ALL. The third column, level, operates in a similar way.

I'm using Excel 2007. I would like to seek some advise on how i may update cells after selecting a month from a drop down list.
i have created a simplified version of what i intend to have. One the 1st tab 'Cash Budget 2009', i have filled up a table with numbers, sorted by months. On the 2nd tab 'Dec09', i would like to create an expense table, to be able to be selected by month. So i have created a drop down list based on the months that are created in the 1st tab.
Upon selection of the month from the drop down list, i would like the cells to display (fetch) the data from the 1st worksheet. It would also be helpful if the name of the 2nd tab can be updated to read as the month that is being selected.
I've created seven names in my data validation source list on Sheet 3 in the following range of cells, A2-A7. My data drop down validation list is located on Sheet 1, A2 in the same workbook. I would like to trigger a macro based on the name I select in this drop validation drop down list that will fill out an address, telephone number, and email address in the following cells next to my data validation drop down list on Sheet 1: B2, B3, and B4. I want it to be designed so that users will select a name and have that person's corresponding address, telephone number, and email address fill right next to their name on the same sheet.
View 6 Replies View RelatedIs there any vba codes that can show tab/sheet that is based on the filter selection.
For example:
Cell A1 have a data validation of Apple, orange and Mango
I have 3 tabs named Apple, orange and Mango.
So every time I select Apple on the main in page filter. Apple tab will show. and if orange then orange tab will show.
I have a data validation list where more than one value should show the same list. Instead of make multiple range, I want to make it so if any of the values are in a cell the data validation list will show the list that goes with those values.

ID Subject 1 Subject 2 Subject 3
1 Italian French German
2 Italian Art Physics
3 German French Italian
4 French Italian German
the result:
Italian French German 3
Italian Art Physics 1
As in the example, the combinations of Italian, French and German where counted, irrelevant of whether the subjects are in 2nd, 3rd or 4th column.
I tried to do this task by creating a pivot table but there are so many permutations and subjects that it would take me a long time to add the combinations.
When i tried to drop another field into data field, by default, the new data field will appear below the field which was already in there. However, i would like the new field showing in an new column - horizontally - rather than showing in a new row.
For example:
Rather than the Pivot table appear like this:
Q108A 72
____B84
____C68
____D5
Q109A 64
____ B 73
____C58

I would like the privot table present like the following format:
____ A_ B_ C_ D_
Q108 72 84 68 5
Q109 64 73 58 5
Is there setting I can change, so that the new field is added to a new column.
