Limit Drop Down List And Linking To Other Info
Feb 1, 2006I have set up a spreadsheet that requires info to be inputted into cells. I have created drop down lists in the cells to only allow certain information to be inputted.
Allow user to use a drop down list and pick the appropriate entry, then have another drop down list in the adjacent cell that only contains items that correspond to what the first drop down entry was (i.e. company name in first drop down box, adjacent cell drop down list only contains parts made for that company). Then I would like the next column to contain the pricing of the item that was chosen in the previous cell's drop down box. Ideally, this cell would be populated automatically depending on the part chosen for the company. I am trying to create a log of parts shipped and total amount shipped.

Mar 19, 2009I'm trying to create a drop down list which returns values based on what has been selected in the previous drop down list in the adjacent cell, e.g. if 'Apples' is selected in the previous cell then you should only be able to select from 'Gala, Granny Smith', or if 'Oranges' is selected you should only be able to select 'Seville, Blood Orange'. Is there a formula which would do this, or can I use a pivot table somehow? I'm totally stumped.

Linking Drop Down Lists Across Worksheets
Jan 20, 2009Using Office 2003.
I have created two workbooks, one which is a master price list (MasterPriceList.xls) and another which is a pricing sheet template that will be used to calculate many different products (Pricing.xls)
I have used a VLOOKUP across the workbooks (thanks to those who helped me with that) but I cannot get a drop list to work across two worksheets. When I enter the source in the "refers to" box, I get a notice saying that you can't use data validation across two workbooks. However, this was the same error message I got when I was incorrectly inserting the reference source for the VLOOKUP function, so I don't believe it Also, there are several tutorials on the web that say this can be done. However, none of them seem to work for me.
I cannot open the Data Validation box and get to the other open worksheet, so I can highlight the area I want, with the range I want to drop down. Until I close the data validation box, I cannot get out of that sheet. I have used cell ranges as well as named ranges.
When I type in a name, I get only the text I entered in the source reference box appearing on the sheet, i.e., the drop down box will only show "=C:Documents And SettingsAllenMy Documents, etc" it doesn't seem to recognize it as a source.
Linking Drop-down Selections To Namelists
May 26, 2007In the attached spreadsheet NamesReference.xls, cell A1 of Initial Quality worksheet has a drop down that apparently references the Namelist? "FieldeList" which is on the List worksheet, cells A1-A14. I understand how to set up the FieldeList Nameslist, but by examining cell A1 of the Initial Quality worksheet, how can you determine that this reference exists, or how do you establish such references to Namelists, with the drop-down arrows?

Created Validation Drop-down List - Can I Make The Row Now Change To The Colour That Relates To The Selection From The List
Jan 13, 2009I am trying to create a fairly simple spreadsheet with about 8 columns and about 400 rows. One of the columns features a drop-down list with about 8 or 9 different options. Dependant on which option is selected, i would like the entire row to change colour with that option.
For example:
FAILED - whole row changes red
SUCCESSFUL - row has no fill
Tested - row changes to orange
etc.
Is this possible within Excel 2003?
Drop-Down List: Generate A List Based On The Value Of A Cell
Jan 7, 2009I am trying to generate a list based on the value of a cell. That list will then be used as the range for a drop-down list. Example: Cell A1 returns a value of 15
A drop-down list displays the values 1 through 15. Cell A1 changes to 20
Drop-down list displays the values 1 through 20. I assume I'll need a two-step macro to accomplish this but I can't figure out the logic to populate the drop-down.
Excel 2007 :: Linking List To A Form
Jan 6, 2014I want to link a table to a form. Only, I noticed that when setting the input range in the form I'm unable to use OFFSET OR a table name. How can I link the form to a list which is going to expand?
Attached is an example. Two sheets. One for the list. One for the form. The list will keep getting added to.
Unrelated-but perhaps useful - Is it possible to link one cell to a list in another sheet so a user can type in a word and it will offer autocomplete options in excel 2007 ?

2) Once Orange is entered which is not in the LIST in sheet 2 then that new name gets added to the LIST in sheet 2 so that next time that name appears in the drop down list automatically. eg Apple, Grape, Mango, Peach, Orange [ but Items should not get duplicated eg Apple, Grape, Apple, Mango, Peach, Apple
Drop Down List Auto

Drop Down List And Formula
Feb 21, 2009I have created a drop down list as follows
Whiteboard 16mm
Colourboard 16mm
Colourboard 18mm
Veneer 18mm
Veneer 19mm
Veneer laid up 40mm
Painted 16mm
Painted 18mm.
When I select one of these items I need CELL A1 to return just the thickness. EG: I hit dropdown list and select Whiteboard, CELL A1 then displays 16mm. Or I select Veneer laid up and it displays 40mm. I would imagine this formula would be quite long as I would have these 8 items in it.

Get Around The DV Drop Down List Limit
Aug 7, 2009in the attached spreadsheet I have multiple sheets. On the tab "Tech IDS", column A is named "Name" and column B is the tech ID that is associated with the name in column A. Column B is validated as List=Name. Now under the tab "CAL Form" under Column A I need to type the tech's name. Now under the tab "CAL SHEET TEMPLATE" the name that I typed corresponds with a given cell (i.e. B2='CAL Form'!A2). Notice though that I2 does not give a tech id b/c of DV dropdown list meeting its limit. Look at I68, Bob's id appears b/c he fits within the limits. My question is... how can I still use the list with more names or can I modify the formula (=INDEX(ID,MATCH(B68,Name,0))) to include another Match search?

and there are five columns aside one another with these same options. What I want to know is if I choose resume for the first list, is there a way that I can make that option unavailable in the following four columns and show this:

Or if I use any selection from the drop-down list, it would be removed from the other 4 columns.
