Populate List Based On Single Cell?

Apr 8, 2014

When I enter a value for 'Number of Steps' from a drop down a table is generated with the x values changing accordingly.

For example:

Number of Steps 5

x x^2
------------
0 0
1 1
2 4
3 9
4 16

Number of Steps 9

x x^2
------------
0 0
0.5 0.25
1 1
1.5 2.25
2 4
2.5 6.25
3 9
3.5 12.25
4 16

You will notice that the number of steps is the number of x values that take us up to 4. The 4 is fixed. I would be able to work out the maths myself as I am a maths teacher but I was wondering how I could autopopulate the table based on a drop down box selection. If it involves going into VBA then don't worry my son needs to get to grips with what I have done.

Edit. The formatting does not seem to work above. On the left of each table is supposed to be the x value and on the right is x^2.

Excel 2007 :: Populate Another Cell Based On Selection In Dropdown List

Mar 7, 2013

[URL]....When I select a name in column B, it populates column C's dropdown with that name's list of units. When I select a unity type in column C, I'd like it to automatically populate column E in the same row with the value associated with that unit. The values associated with a particular unit can be found to the right of the sheet. So if in row 2 I select Blake in column B, then Unit 5 in column C, I'd like column E to be populated with 14.

Edit: using Excel 2007.

I attached stripped down version of the sheet which is small enough to post. None of the things I removed should affect the topic at hand. The full sheet is available at rapidshare.

Populate List Based On Another

Feb 11, 2008

I have three sheets. A raw data sheet, a sheet of formatted data, and a third sheet with a list of invoice numbers.

I've already developed the code to format the raw data to the formatted data sheet. What I need is to populate the third sheet with the invoice numbers I've used, and not use the data from the data sheet if the invoice numbers are on the sheet with the list of invoice numbers.

I need to do this via a macro.

Populate List Based On Two Selected Conditions

Apr 6, 2009

I have a worksheet which contains all the details of the medical equipment in the county that i'm responsible for.

This worksheet posesses amongst others; two columns titled location and sublocation.

I need a technique which will allow me to select a location from a dropdown list, select a sublocation again from a list and for these two conditions to then populate a list containing data such as asset code and description of all the items in the location and sublocation (possibly a little like an advanced filter, but only for the selected conditions)

This list will then be used to provide an engineers report on equipment holdings at various locations. I'm open to any ideas fellas.

Populate Cells Based On Chosen Drop Down List Value

Apr 25, 2008

I am attempting to populate a row of several cells on a worksheet using a drop-down list, using data from a seperate worksheet in the same workbook. The worksheet containing the data will be hidden (I do not think that matters in this case). Do I place a VLOOKUP function in the first worksheet cells? see attached sample

DropDownSample.xls

As a follow-up question, as time goes by, the data in the source worksheet will be appended with new items (additional rows of data). As each new item is added, will I need to edit the formulas, or is there a way for Excel to dynamically add the new data? This might be stretching my wish list a bit but I thought I'd ask.

Validation List From A Single Cell

Jan 4, 2008

First, I have read through the board, and I was not able to find a solution already posted. I apologize if in fact this is a duplicate.

Second, I am comfortable with dynamic lists, dynamic ranges, chained validation lists, etc: so I am pretty sure my question is not a repeat of the other recent validation list questions.

Therefore:

Is it possible to generate a validation list from a single cell with a comma separated list?

For example, if I have “Fresh, Cool, Hot, Neutral, Smooth” in given cell, can I then have those 5 items appear as separate choices in a validation list?

I have tried every combination I could think of using arrays, named lists, the INDIRECT function, etc. I cannot seem to get it to recognize them as separate items. For the moment, I have created a bad (too long/complex) workaround where formulas are used to pull out each of the 5 strings into individual cells.

Creating An Ordered (ranked) List Within A Single Cell

Mar 22, 2007

I'd like to create, in a single cell, what we call a "geochemical signature".

I have data that looks like this....

AreaID, Cu, Au, Pb, Zn, Sb
2, 5.1, .1, 0, 2.2, .2
3, 0, 0, .1, .2, 0

And I'd like to add a column onto the end of the table that returns a value like this...

AreaID, Cu, Au, Pb, Zn, Sb, Signature
2, 5.1, .1, 0, 2.2, .2, Cu Zn (Sb Au)
3, 0, 0, .1, .2, 0, (Zn Pb)

Such that a single cell has an ordered (ranked) list of the elements that relate to that AreaID. Also, any element with a value < 1 is returned in brackets, and elements that have a value of 0 are ignored.

Single Cell Comma Separated Values To Validation List

May 31, 2013

How to have a validation list (drop-down) from a single-cell in which values are separated by a comma.

Example I have.

I have a wine list which have many categories of which

COL A / COL B / COL C
Wine Name / Wine Producer / Vintage

I wrote a VBA code to look-up duplicates names and give the producers that make them. The names of the producers will be in an invis cell as Comma Separated Values.

For example: Wine 11 is made by producer X and Wine 11 is made by producer Y. I will have X,Y in a cell which need to be in a drop-down menu when Wine 11 is selected.

I got everything done. The only issue is to get the list. The problem is that the drop-down list shows X,Y as a single component and not as 2 drop-down components. If i were to write down X,Y in the validation list tab, it will show it as 2 components but referring to the cell doesn't.

Populate A Cell Based On Range Of Data

Mar 5, 2009

I need to modify the code below:

PHP
Sub Macro1()
 Macro1 Macro
    Dim strbody As String
    For Each cell In Range("B2:B640")  
    Sheets("MASTER").Select
    Cells.Select
    Selection.Copy
    Sheets("Final Merged").Select
    Sheets.Add
    ActiveSheet.Paste  
   Next
End Sub 

The code above is creating a new sheet for each different value in column B. I would also like to take that value and place on the newly created sheet in cell A17.

Also, how would I get the sheet to be ranamed to match the value in cell A17 of the newly created sheet?

Populate Cell Based On Multiple Criteria

Dec 7, 2006

I think the best thing is to take a look at the attached, then read what I'm looking for, as it would make more sense...

That being said: what I am looking to do is change cell L3 based on new criteria in cell M3.

Right now if B3=Stationery World then L3=Stationery.

What I then want to happen is if E3=Toner then M3=67200 which then has L3=Equipment Consumables and NOT stationery.

Populate Adjacent Cells From Single Dropdown

Aug 10, 2009

I have the need to create a spreadsheet that will populate multiple fields in the spreadsheet based on a drop down selection, i.e.:

In A1 I will have a drop down with 300 items. When an item is selected the next four cells will populate with predetermined data. Example:

For each person I have information that applies only to that person like so:
Bob Red Hair Blue Eyes 6' tall California
Jan Blond Green 5' tall Florida
Ian Brown Brown 5'5" Texas


If someone chooses bob from the drop down, I need the next four cells to display the information relating to bob.

Single Cell Value From Either Dropdown List Or Enter Manually Depending On Selection

Jun 22, 2014

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.

ddl.png

[URL]

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.

Excel 2010 :: Return Range Of Cell Concatenated Based On Single Cell Value

Jul 2, 2012

I have a range of cells each containing a name. Based on a number that has to be entered manually I want excel to return the names concatenated in one cell. So for example:

Number of variable entered: 5

q9001
q9002
q9003
q9004
q9005
q9006
etc.

Should give me: "q9001 q9002 q9003 q9004 q9005"

I have been trying to work with formulas using IF and CONCAT functions. But so far I haven't figured out how to have excel return me the correct amount of variables for each separate number that can be entered seeing the number of variables entered can vary from 1 up to 50.
