I am trying to set the data validation on a cell based on another cell value
So basically if the User enters say CAN in cell A2, cell B2 should use "listCAN" range as the data validation list
and if i enter US in A2, B2 should use "listUS" as the data validation list
I have already set up a data validation, if if you pick a region, you only get that regions items in the next column.
A
B
C
D
E
[Code]...
But what I would like to do is in Column E(for this example) have 3 extra lists for Location in each region. So if I pick S in A, then in E I only want the Southern options.
I have checked out this website, but I cant seem to work out how to add the third dependence [URL]....
I'm trying to have a Data Validation list issue where I want to populate a second list based upon the value of the first list.
In this instance I have a Department in the drop down and Employee Name in the second drop down and I want people to only see Employee names if they're allocated to a particular Department. I've been able to do the list using the INDIRECT function, however that only works when there's only a small sample of both names & depts, however I'm looking at populating this document with around 3000 people and over 250 departments, so I would like to be able to use Column J on the Source Tab to populate the details on the Manager Entry tab.
I have attached a sample spreadsheet if I've not explained very clearly.

I'm working on a few dynamic KPI charts and could use a little help with figuring out data valuation for the End Date value. In the attached workbook I am using data validation to pick a start date from a dynamic list (Dates) in E2:Exxx. Cell B2 has 2/8/2010 picked. I would like to have a drop down in B2 show the listing of all dates in E2:Exxx which occur after 2/8/2010, so the filtered list would be in the range E3:E49.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have created a template using data validations. I have a drop down in column O, which you can choose from Credit or Charge. In column V, I want:
- If selected Credit in column O, only negative numbers allowed in column V
- If selected Charge in column O, only positive numbers allowed in column V
I want to control what a user enters into a single cell based on others.E.g.
A B
1 20 500
2 50 500
3 75 500
4 100 300
Column A is a thickness and column b is a width what I want to happen if the user enters a thickness in cell D1 and a width in cell D2 I want an error to pop up if for instance the user enters 100 as a thickness to only allow a maximum of 300 in the width. likewise if the user enters a thickness less than 100 in cell D1 to allow him to enter up to 500.
I'm trying to figure a to enforce dual data validation on a single cell. That is, I need to restrict the user to entering only a decimal value, only if a particular other cell (say A2) is blank. To put it another way, if A2 is blank, the user can enter a decimal value, but if A2 is not blank, the user cannot enter anything. I can use Data Validation to enforce either the decimal restriction or the ISBLANK, but I'm not sure how to make them work together.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have attached a sheet that I am working on. I want cell G1 to be less than or equal to 165. That cell contains a formula. If the formula takes the number to over 165 the validation is allowing it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need a data validation to prevent entries when they are > 50, but only if the value of another cell in col A is "Payment". The value of 50 is an example, I have another formula to get this number using VLookup.
The idea is that if the value of the cell in col A is "Income", I don't want the entry to be rejected. But if the value in col A is "Payment" or "Transfer" and > 50, I want the entry to be rejected (if I only have $50, then the payment cannot be > 50).
I want to populate a Data Validation based on values in another cell on another worksheet--but, I want to populate it with the values stored in the cell right next to the cell. http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...n/untitled.jpg. would be an example....
What I want my Data Validation List to do is to look at column B and wherever it sees a certain color--for example, red, I want it to put the corresponding value in column A in the list.
What I would like to do is hide rows 27:30 if the data validation list is equal to "Select Product...". The list is in B27:B30. I've search the forum but couldn't get the codes to work...
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have tried to modify the examples here on the site, but can't seem to get it. Cell G1 has list data validation of 5 numbers,6 digits long. In the cells below G10:G500, these numbers are listed. However, in the G10:G500 range the numbers have 8 digits. The first 6 digits remain the same and only the last 2 change. Here is what I would like to see happen: When I chose a number from G1, I would like to highlight all the cells with the first 6 digits matching G1 in the range G10:G500.

I need to be able to multiply values out based on what i choose on the drop down menu.

Is 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.
What I am trying to do would appear to be very simple. I am trying to build a quotation form for our sales guys to use. I would like to use a drop down list with the list of products in, which I have created using a list in a second sheet and then using a data validation drop down list.
What I would like to achieve is the sales person selects the product (of a list of only 14) from the list and excel to automatically fill in the two columns to the right with the model no. and also the price.
Would it be possible to use an IF statement as there are only 14 products to choose from? Is there a better way of doing this? I have created the lists of model numbers and prices in the second sheet alongside the product name which the drop down list sources from.
I am building an Excel file that will be used to track information and at the core of it all is a list of people from different offices where the number of people per office can change and/or a person leaves the company and is replaced by another. I'll simply:
Column A Column B
Office Employee
Hamilton Emp 1
Hamilton Emp 2
Hamilton Emp 3
Toronto Emp 4
Toronto Emp 5
Toronto Emp 6
Toronto Emp 7
Toronto Emp 8
Waterloo Emp 9
Waterloo Emp 10
This will be all on Worksheet 'Info'. I have a Worksheet for each Office and named them accordingly. On each worksheet I want to use Data Validation on a column, we will call it 'ChosenOne', set it as 'List' and have the Source pull all the employee names that belong to that office and use them as a selection
ex: Hamilton Worksheet, 'ChosenOne' would show Emp 1, Emp 2, and Emp 3 in the list.
If Emp 3 changed offices to Waterloo 6 months from now I would like to change A4 from Hamilton to Waterloo and the formula would not have to be changed and the next time someone selects 'ChosenOne' it would only show Emp 1 and Emp 2.
Of course this means on the Waterloo Worksheet, 'ChosenOne' would show Emp 3, Emp 9, Emp 10 now.
So basically I am trying to not specify a specific named range for each office and am hoping there is a way to poll information from a Table (or any other tool that can simplify this).
I would be ok with something like:
Column A Column B
Office Employee
Hamilton Emp 1, Emp2, Emp 3
Toronto Emp 4, Emp 5, Emp 6, Emp 7, Emp 8
Waterloo Emp 9, Emp 10
and just move Emp 3 from B2 to B4 but I don't know if a list can be created from multiple items in a single cell seperated by a , or ; or :.
I am creating a disclaimer in one of my sheets.
Cell I15 contains 'Are you a resident for tax purposes?' Cell N15 has the data validation list of Yes or No.
Then I have a button below which covers rows18, 19 and 20.
Is there a way I can have this button hidden until Cell N15 = Yes?
I want to select a Hyperlinked file.These files are named using Data in ColumnA,B & C. The realtionship between filename and data in columns is; A-B-C.ext. After selecting data A from the dropdown list,i should be able to select corresponding data B and then again another dropdown list for corresponding data C.This should show the desired already hyperlinked file. I want to select the hyperlinked file name by simply selecting all the three data independently.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a simple worksheet, it is a tracking sheet for programs taught. What I'm trying to find is a code to insert a row based on a Data Validation List.
Exampl of data:
Column A is for " Name" then futher down Column K is "Program Taught" and Column L is " Date Taught".
Column K is where the Data Validation List is located with a in cell drop down.
What I would like to do is when a user selects a program from Column K a row is inserted with all of the formulas and formats from the previous row, and upon insert would like it to copy Column A into the new row.
This would be so I can keep a historical of programs and dates taught.
And to really spice things up I want to lock Columns K & L of the previous row after the new row is inserted.
i am attaching a sheet here.

I have a data validation cell that has 5 items to be selected, lets say A-E.
I would like a macro that checks and does the following:
A or B selected, hide row 25-34, rows 45- 53
C or D selected, hide row 24-44
E selected, hide rows 34-53
In each case, the macro should check and unhide all rows between 25-53 before doing the above
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.
In the spreadsheet shown below I would like the user to select a project via a dropdown list in cell B2 which is from the data set shown in row 7 downwards. Then based on the project they select, they need to be able to see all of the locations associated with that project and choose in B3. Finally they then need to be able to select a team which is associated with the project & location combination chosen in cells B2 and B3.

I'm creating a form with drop downs, and I'd like the answer choice someone makes for one question (ie- what county they're in) to affect the answer choices for a secondary question (ie- what city they're in).
I'd like to avoid using names, at least for the second dropdown (since there would be too many names, and in some of the questions in the data set things change too much for names to be a good option). I would also like to avoid using VBA to keep it simple and maintainable. Here is a simplified version of a small subset of the data.
Drop Down 1:
County (options: Santa Clara County, Napa County)
Drop Down 2:
Cities/Towns (options: the cities/towns that relate to the above county selection, without using names)
County
Cities/Towns
Santa Clara County
San Jose

Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim pt As PivotTable
Dim pi As PivotItem
Dim strField As String
strField = "Region"

I am quite inexperienced with Excel and I am struggling to understand how should I set up a formula, within the data validation function to achieve the following:
I need to restrict a certain set of cells, for people to be able to input only the following values: "1", "0.5", "A", "H", "0.5A" (or 0.5a), "0.5H" (or 0.5h)
And I would need the data validation tool not to include blank cells.
What I have:
I have 12 months in a year and each number represent a month. I have generated lists of data mainly interest and principle payments from 12 amortization sheets which i have just copied into the attached spreadsheet and will change accordingly based on the loan terms which doesn concern us. For our purposes we wont make distintion between principle and payment as i just need to see how to make what i need work.
What I need:
I need to offset data vertically automatically once i the user selects an option value (Number in this Case) from the validation list located within the Payment control box. Going from left to right you see the raw data but in this example i need the data on the right hand side to be offset down the number of rows which may be found in the control box as a validation list.
IE:
So if i were to use "Loan I" [L6] and select a "2"[J6] from the "Payment Control" then the data on the right hand side [L6[ would reflect a $0 but instead the new value for L7 would be "$24.96" and would continue down for about 374 rows. This will have to be done for Loans I - Loans N [L6:Q6] respectively. This is all i need in order to compile and make use of in my spreadsheets.
Thanks and cannot be a formula as forumlas will be overwritten and cannot be a macro so it must be a module in itself so it an run when the list is changed.
the single digit values in coulmns M6:Q3 are there mainly so you can see the difference between the base and the position at which the data is placed at. its not need but is there to stress and to show the number rows in offset of data.
I seek to create a date validation list based on information is another cell (see images)
Based on (data validated list) Cell B4 - have a validation list drawn from another tab on the same worksheet "Sub regions"
equally the same with sub regions and citys...
In sheet 1, there are two columns, Category and Subgroup. The cell validation for Category is pulled from the category list on sheet 2. Basically, what I want to happen is depending on what is selected as the category, only the related sub-groups would be populated in the sub-group validation dropdown list. In other words, if Fruit is selected as the category, I only want Apple, Orange, Pear, Banana, etc to be in the validation drop down list for the sub group. If vegetable, then only Corn, Green Bean, Cucumber, and Peas should be shown.
I've included two options for the relationship list as I'm not tied to either style and not sure which would be easier to work with.
