View 14 RepliesI need to have a drop down list which displays a different set of values depending upon the value selected by a previous drop down list. ie. (drop down box 1)= x, y, z. (drop down box 2)= either x1, x2, x3, or y1, y2, y3, or z1, z2, z3. I can produce a single drop down box thats not a problem but linking several drop down boxes is beyond me .
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook with 4 drop down lists. The selection in list 1 determines what is shown in list 2. I wish to have list 3 dependant on list 1 also, but don't know how to associate 2 drop down lists with the same previous cell.
The first list is in cell C2 and the table of data needed for list 3 is AC8:AC27-AO8:AO27,including the column titles.
I would like to use or not use a dropdown list in data validation depending on the value of another cell. The application is to be able to choose a state from the dropdown list only if the country selected in another cell is "US". If the country is not US then I want the user to be able to fill in free text and there be no dropdown list. I know it's possible to have a dropdown list and allow entries without it being on the list but I need the dropdown list not to appear at all if the value is not US.

I have a cell in my spreadsheet that I use to control the size of a column. I formatted the cell as a number and added data validation to make sure the number is greater than zero. Then I realized that I need to also allow for the option of auto sizing the column as well. This would require a data validation list type with something like True and False for the choices.
What I want to be able to do is have it both ways. I want a drop down list in that cell with the options Auto Size or Custom. If Auto Size is selected the cell value gets set to that. If Custom is selected I then want to be able to type in a number.

Is there a way to setup a cell such that the value is either an item from the drop down list or, entered directly (depending on the list selection)?
I know I can do it with dependent lists but that would require two cells, one for the auto size mode (true/false) and the other for manual width value.
I see that IF statements can only be nested 7 times. How do I create a cell that checks to see what item was selected in the dropdown box of 20 different choices and choose a particular cell range depending on what is chosen?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'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.

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).

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.

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.

Then any name that meets the criteria will be available in the drop down list. How can I do this?

I'm using Excel 2010. I have developed a calculator (attached) to make life easier for my colleagues. It works perfectly fine. But one thing keeps bugging me.
In Cell C3 - You have the option to choose "Daily" or "Weekly" (Drop Down). This selection effects your selection for Cell C6.
If you choose Daily in Cell C3 then your options for Cell C6 are restricted to select/enter an amount between £0.00 and £6.00.
If you choose Weekly in Cell C3 then your options for Cell C6 are restricted to select/enter either £0.00 or £12.00.
This works perfect.
However, if I select "Weekly" and then select " £12.00", all my results are perfect which is exactly what I want BUT if I then go back up to C3 and change "Weekly" to "Daily", the £12.00 in C6 remains (though the data validation for "Daily" is restricted to £0.00- £6.00) and all the results are consequently wrong until C6 is changed.
The obvious thing is to delete the £12.00 from Cell C6 or introduce a "clear" button BUT I don't want my colleagues to do this as it leaves the possibility of error and since we are dealing with money, I can't have it.
So what I would love and what would complete this calculator and deem it ready is if every time Cell C3 is selected (i.e. from the drop down list you choose Weekly or Daily) it as a result resets Cell C6 to £0.00.

I have a worksheet (say, Sheet1) that I am going to manually import a large data set into on a weekly basis for reporting purposes. One of the columns from this data dump will have the header "Design Id" in the first row, but it may not be in the same column every time. I am trying to figure out how to create dropdown lists on a separate worksheet (say, Sheet2) in the same workbook where the data source always looks up the column containing the header "Design Id" from Sheet1 and then returns only the unique values from that column as options in the list.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am looking to write a code to lock/unlock cells based on values selected using a drop down list (see attached Excel) For example if Netherlands is chosen as the Country (Column A), then except for the columns Amsterdam (column B) and Eindhoven (column C), all other columns must be locked. Similarly, if India is chosen as the country from the drop down list, then only the columns New Delhi and Mumbai must be editable for the user, the rest of the columns remain locked.
I tried tweaking some of the lock/unlock codes around, but got lost especially with getting to run the macro - still trying to come to terms with running a "Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange" function in the sheet from "Module"!
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 looking to use a drop-down to allow me to highlight a complete row depending on what I choose, each row is unique.
So if my drop-down is say 20 different words and I choose "Oil" I want it to look down the table and highlight the row that shows oil prices.
Example of column A might be as shown below (Starting in say A3).
(A3)Petrol
(A4)Wood
(A5)Oil
(A6)F/Fuel
(A7)Other
From my drop-down located in A1 I choose "Oil" I want it to select only row A5 and either highlight it or blank out the rest.
how to make few dropdown lists depending on one before.
Example: I have table with next data: COLUMN A: (A1) Expense Type ( in all columns under A1 are types of expenses );
(A2) total trip cost;
(A3) Prize promo tour cost;
(A4 ) court renting cost;
(A5) Prize IPP cost
In columns B1, C1, D1, E1 are cities. Under each city is value for type of expense. I have uploaded worksheet for example.
Now, problem is next: I am trying to make drop down lists ( in new work sheet ) by using depending data from data table.
1.I made drop down list in first cell (let's say it is an A1 cell ) where I can chose city ( for example City of Zagreb ).
2.Then in next cell (B2) I would like to choose type of expense in drop down list ( for example Total trip cost ).
3.Finally, in C3 cell I would like to make drop down list that offers me just expense value for combination of chosen city ( Zagreb ) and chosen expense type ( Total trip cost ).
