Selectable List Box
May 21, 2007
Can a list box (or other type) be created that would come up and allow a selection of multiple items. I do not need the items to be viewable beyond the selection, only to be ablle to sum different segments of the rows that were selected.
As example: Upon clicking in cell B 141 of the sheet a box would come up that would include the descriptions (in column C) of all items that are between rows 1 and 140 that have identifeid by a "y" in Column B. Then you could select as many as you desired and the sum of the quantity (column d) of the selected items would then appear in D141.

I would just like to know if there is a way to add items to a drop down list that cant actually be selected.
Asking because I have a table from which the dropdown list gets populated and the user then selects a particular row but would like the header fields to also be added to the list just for reference.
I have attached the spreadsheet in question for reference.

If I put data into one of two cells I want it so that the other cell cannot be selected. I can't say I've struggled with this for days as I really don't know where to start

I am trying to use the COUNTIF function but over a selectable range. in other words instead of a fixed range like =COUNTIF(A1:A11,"=yes") I want to be able to choose the range Axx:Axx selected by drop down menus.

I am attempting to create a Menu (food) in Excel 2007. I have a list of foods that I would like to select once one is selected the next list would be for the next item and so on. I know how to create a drop down list but once I select an Item
I would like the next list to narrow down the field (or choices). I am not sure I explained this well enough so here is another way to put it.
First Column would be a choice of meats. Beef, Chicken, Pork, etc.
If you select say Beef the next column would be a veggie, Carrots, Peas, Green beans. But with Beef you cannot select Carrots. and so on.

If I create a pivot table, I'm able to click the arrow to the right on my row header, unselect "Show All" and then manually check boxes next to the rows I want to show. The pivot table then shows only the rows I'm interested in.
I can't figure out how to do this with filtering outside of the pivot table. I can select AutoFilter and then select "All", "Top 10" or individual rows, but I don't have the option to use a checkbox style selection to choose multiple, but not all, rows.
How can I set this up to have checkboxes associated with the AutoFilter dropdown so I can pick and choose which rows show?

I have a sheet with logged test data.
Various test items are stored in columns.
(First row of each column is the description of the test item)
Problem:
1) To reflect certain testdata in a chart I want to be able to select a different column (Y values) by means of a dropdownlist.
X values are just the number of items (1 to ...)
How to make the charts data source selectable?
2) It seems that the input range of a ddl should be a list of items.
In my case they are in the first row of each column so only the first item is shown.

I do data entry for a webstore and one cell is used to map out the exact product category/subcategory path. I currently have to copy the appropriate path from a long list on one page and then paste it into the cell. I have to do this a hundred times a day. It would be nice if each cell within that column can have these values stored in them so I can just click on the cell and open up a drag down box and select the needed value. Is this possible to do in Excel?

The following macro copies a range from "ThisWeek" worksheet to a selectable worksheet "Week1, Week2, Week3, etc. (determined by value in cell P13 (1,2,3,etc.)) The copy destination is currently cells F5:F36 but I want to make this range selectable also (ex. G5:G36, H5:H36, etc).
For example: If "ThisWeek" worksheet (fixed) cell $B$7 = "Adam", I want to match/lookup this name on row 4 (column F,G,H,etc) on the destination worksheet and copy the range of data to a column under the heading labeled "Adam". (No need to verify if heading exists)
Hope I have explained my problem clearly.

I have developed a user form in VBA which is used for entry into an excel worksheet. From this data, I need to do the following:
1) Create 2 output files for Job data entitled "J" and another file entitled "S". The "J" and "S" is captured in a field in the data. I need to hit a button that allows these 2 output files to be produced, so I need to 'loop' through rows of the data to do this/
2) In addition to 1), the user needs to be able to 'select' the date range they would like to see 'J' and 'S' data over. This will be based on a field called "Startdate'. How could I do this with the button above-can I parse an input value to a form and select the 'J' and 'S' files on this.

I have my dummy data, and I have (what I think) is how I want the data to be shown. My friend uses Google Sheets, but I prefer Excel. I am trying to convert the code because I am a stickler for excel. Typically I can convert codes some easily, but this is way beyond me.
For Column A: I want to create a list on sheet 'Setup!' based on ids!D2:D="yes". If that list has duplicate entries, I would like only the first entry to show up, but for the next entries I would like the cell to be blank. (this is important for the next step) For Column C: I want to have the corresponding dates go with the name entry. For Column D: I want to have the notes go with the corresponding date entry. (I believe I can manipulate Column C's code to do Column D myself).
I am also going to upload a data sheet, and an expected results sheet.

I have pulled a SharePoint list into my workbook. The list object (table) is still linked to the SharePoint list, as I'd like to synchronize it later on. I have filtered it with an autofilter. I'd like to delete all of the visible rows. I have tried a billion things to no avail. I have been searching Google for hours now. None of the examples work.

I'm using Excel 2010 on a Windows 7 machine.
I have one sheet with a large list of dates and total prices.
I have a second sheet with a list of dates and unit prices.
I want to divide the total price in my first list by the unit price on my second list.
I want to somehow point Excel to the date in the first list, and then lookup the corresponding date in the second list to use the correct unit price.
My thoughts thus far have been along using VLOOKUP with WEEKNUM and YEAR but I've been unsuccessful.

I'm trying to use data validation to restrict the user to only selecting values in a list which I create. Right now, the list is a named range. I'd like to get rid of the range and just use a named list. I create a name using the following as my list.
Insert > Name > Create
Name: Fruit
Refers to:
banana,apple,orange
When I try to use the name Fruit in my data validation, I get the message "The List Source must be a delimited list, or a reference to single row or column." I thought my name "fruit" was a delimited list.

It is a product list of office stationary with codes, descriptions and quantities. Using this spreadsheet we input into the quantity how many we want of the item, all well and simple you could call the list a stationary order form.
What I would like to be able to do with this Giant list is to have a function that would extract items off the list into a cleaner consolidated form. As in, if I wanted to order some of item A, C and F, I would like for the second table to just Show ACF without every letter in between or blank cells.
I know a simple method would be to have an IF formula to return the information to a new sheet that I could simply remove blank cell rows (unordered items) and ready for print each time. But I would love to know if there is a better way this could be achieved.
I have basic/intermediate knowledge of excel and can setup the data if need be in order for the function to work, but I can't seem to find the correct function for this project.

I need to consolidate these two lists of data into one list.
First set is just a basic list of individuals with their data.
Second set is multiple entries for those same individuals. Each entry shows a subscription to a programme. The final single sheet should have one row per individual which shows all of the programmes they are subscribed to.
See attached, example sheet.
The real list is 3000 IDs, so need some kind of formula to do this.

I have a large amount of data, 40,000+ rows about how students do in remedial classes including from whom they took the classes. I have pulled from it a subset of student success as relates to the separate instructors. Now I would like to extract a consolidated list of those instructors for whom the student gain on criterion based pre and post course assessments is above a specific level. I have no trouble writing if statements that will look at two types of data, the course taken and the average student increase to determine which instructors meet or surpass the criterion, but I can only do that within a list that includes all the instructors. Because there are more than an hundred such instructors, it would be easier for the dean if I could provide a short list of those that meet specific criteria. I believe that it would be an array that I should use, but I have been fooling around with this for 2 days now, and am finding myself at a series of deadends!

I'm currently working with 3 dropdown lists depending on each other using data validation and =indirect(). I arranged them like in a top-down approach where you have a mother-list and child-lists (categories-->subCategories-->subCategoryCriteria). The user should easily chose first a category then a subCategory etc... This part works perfectly
My question is: when a user chose in the dropdown list e.g. a category, a subCategory and a subCategoryCriteria and he now maually deletes the value in the highest level, which is the Category (mother-list), all sub level values like subCategory and subCategoryCriteria will stay. It shouldn't be that way, because it's not logical. If you turn a tree upside-down (top-down approach) and cut one of the higher positioned trunks, all lower positioned trunks will fall off as well, right? So, my question is: can I use a conditional formatting or a formula to delete or fade out the value in the lower lists when the higher list value is being deleted?
I tried to use If-formula in combination with indirect in data validation, like =IF(A1="";("");INDIRECT(B1))...just and example.
The value doesnt need to be deleted, it could also be automatically face out like white on white or something. It's just confusing for the user if he deletes the highest choice and the lower choices still stay.

I'm creating a spreadsheet to keep track of my costs of production in an online game. Within the game there are a range of spawned resources that appear for only a short time before being unobtainable these resources have specific types that is shared between multiple spawns of the resource but each resource spawn has a unique name.
My first worksheet lists all the resources and their various qualities and the later worksheets are meant to allow me to choose from a list resources matching the requirements of the item I'm looking to craft. The example i have shown in the second picture requires Tatooinian Fiberplast and Lokian Wild Wheat to craft so in the Chosen Resource column I would like to have a drop down list allowing me to select the named resource type i would like to use - for Tatooinian Fiberplast the only thing on the list should be Omnitwixi and for the Wild Wheat it should show Fizi and Krad

I'm trying to create a staff rota which will populate a rota randomly when prompted - I have been trying to find some way of connecting the random lists and the staff names, though this has proved difficult (to say the least!). How best to proceed? I'm also fully aware of the possibility that my present design will also double book people (place then on reception and telephone duty simultaneously).

I 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?

The function below should return the value in a cell IF the string in the cell two cells to the left of it is "Nemo" Omitting the part highlighted in blue, my function returns a list of unique values...but when it's included, nothing is returned at all. Perhaps, there is an error in the syntax that I'm overlooking?
Function listUnique(rng As Range) As Variant
Dim row As Range
Dim elements() As String
