For instance, If I select district manager, I want to show the data of only the people who are successors for district manager. For my own reasons I want to use this method rather than just applying the standard filters to the column headings.
I have attached a sample workbook : DummyData.xlsx

Linking Named Cell Ranges Within A Formula
Mar 2, 2007This is what i have tried in a forumla:
=IF(ISERROR(IF(Search1="","No Place Found",INDEX(LocationsANDLocations2,MATCH("*"&Search1&"*",LocationsANDLocations2,0)))),"No Place Found",IF(Search1="","No Place Found",INDEX(LocationsANDLocations2,MATCH("*"&Search1&"*",LocationsANDLocations2,0))))

What is the best method of linking the them, so it can search for matched text in each cell, so it looks in LocationsTable then LocationsTable2 and so on.
Formula Error In Hidden Sheets With Formulas Linking To A Sheet Of Same Workbook?
Nov 30, 2012I am currently working with a hidden sheetname "hide_template" which contains formula linking to another sheetname "rawdata" of same workbook.
In this "rawdata", the contents is updated from time to time.
The problem is when I open this workbook and update the entries in "rawdata", the formulas/results in "hide_template" is not updated and invalid (ie. #N/A, #VALUE..)
This is the overview of process that Im working with:
===> open workbook ===> paste new entries on "rawdata" ==> run a macro to copy range in the "hidden_template" to paste to new sheet of same workbook
I already have a working macro to copy range from the "hidden_template" which works as follows:
===> set to visible the "hidden_template" ===> copy range from "hidden_template" ===> paste to new sheet ===> set to hidden the "hidden_template"

Excel 2010 :: Dropdown Box And Formula?
Mar 14, 2012I am using Excel 2010 .I have set up Data validation for a dropdown box so I can select from a list of items. In the old versions of Excel the actual drop down arrow used to appear in each cell. In the version I have, the drop down arrow only appears when you select the actual cell. When I did the validation I checked the " In-Cell Dropdown", but it still doesnt put the arrow in the cell. Is this functionality available in Excel 2010 ?
My second issue is a formula.
The last name is in a list of items and users have to select Yes or No to theitems on the list. I am wanting to create another spreadsheet that automatically populates based on their responses.
In short, I want to be able to set up a rule or formula that states if the answer in column A is "y" then I need the information in column B to be displayed.
The ultimate aim is to get a automatic sub set, (in another tab), of the orginal information based on users responses.
Nested If And Offset Formula From Dropdown List?
Apr 7, 2014I have two lists ("fulllist" & "code" - A1:A20 is a data validated dropdown list of "fulllist". I want B2:B20 to return a list item offset one column to the item selected in A1:20
So, if A:1 drop down equals "asphalt paving" I want B:2 to insert a code from a list on cell right of asphalt paving.
Something like =IF(B31<>"fulllist",=OFFSET("fulllist",0,1,,),"") This returns an error. I have a feeling I need to use match. I can't seem to find an answer to this and I bet it is fairly simple.
Making Dropdown Menu That Will Change Formula?
Dec 10, 2013At the moment if a pupil has done foundation listening then I write their numerical result in, for example C3 or if they have done higher listening I write it in F3 (and it works out the UMS and then the grade), but I wondered if there would be any way to just put a dropdown menu in a column for each name, or change it so that I can type in H or F that will change which data is used? Because the UMS and grades are different depending on whether the pupil has done higher or foundation I am unsure how to format it

Formula Based On Value Returned From Dropdown List?
Jan 21, 2014I want to perform a calculation that is based upon user selection from a drop down list. In a simple for instance it would be something like:
Cell A1 has a drop down list containing 'Apples' & 'Oranges'
Cell A2 asks for quantity

Formula To Get An Average Based On A Dropdown List
Jul 14, 2009Im creating a spreadsheet at work, which has a drop down box with the options of open and closed in it.
I also have a column for length of time of the claim, what i need to do, is now find a way of getting a average length of a claim, but only to see the closed option from the drop down box.
for example,
row 1
open date - 02/06, closed date - 01/07, dropdown box - closed, life - 29
row 2
open date - 10/06, closed date - n/a, dropdown box - open, life - -39400
as you can see from the example above, i cant simply do a average of the whole column, as would read the open ones as well. so is there a way of doing the formula, but telling it to only see the open, or closed ones?

Dynamic Dropdown Menus With Offset Formula
Sep 29, 2011I have a table in cells A1:B11. I have two drop down menus in cells G3 and H3. When I select red in G3 I need Bob, Sam and Sarah appear in the drop down menu in cell H3. Instead, with my current formula, only Sarah appears in the drop down in cell H3. When I select green in G3 I need Tommy, Bob, Sandy, Carl and Phil appear in the drop down menu in Cell H3. Instead with my current formula only Phil appears in the drop down in cell H3.
I linked cell H3 to the defined name Names which equals
OFFSET(INDEX(Sheet4!$B:$B, MATCH(Sheet4!$G$3, Sheet4!$A:$A,0),0),COUNTIF(Sheet4!$A:$A, Sheet4!$G$3)-1,0).
What should I add to this formula to make it work correctly?

Overwrite Formula When Using VLookup Dropdown As Option?
Feb 21, 2014I have a spreadsheet where there is an option to either select a pre-priced item from a drop down list or type in manual entries. If the data is entered manually, I have included a formula to obtain cost data. For example, column A has the number of labor hours and column B multiplies Column A by $500. However, if a person chooses to select a pre-priced item from the drop down menu, can the pre-entered data from the VLookup list overwrite the formula? I do want it to overwrite if it is possible for it to do so.

I'm not sure whether this should be in the Validation or in the Total cell.

Selecting Named Range From Dropdown Validation List To Use In Formula?
Jan 18, 2013Basically on a summary page, on sheet 1 say I have a formula which picks up the unit cost (I have this as an array across 5 years)
What I then want to do is multiply this by a volume driver. I have a list of these drivers on a seperate page, so for convenience lets say DRIVER_01,DRIVER_02 etc. These are also 5 years arrays.
So what I want to do it be able to select which driver I want to use for volume on the summary, from a drop down box I have set up, and then the formula pick up that named range, and not just recognise it as a text cell.
I need the ability to change the driver in the future, hence the drop down box. I can also get the unit array part to work fine, I'm just struggling to get this driver array to work..............
