Showing Different Results Dependant On Drop Down Box
Sep 19, 2007
I'm creating a spreadsheet to track orders as part of a project, the spreadsheet currently lists all the different options that can be ordered, it then lists all parts of the order, installation & setup etc.
However it is likely that not all of the options will be used.
What I would like to do is create a few drop down boxes for each option, if 'yes' is selected then the order tracking for that option shows below.
Example, the wants 'internet' so 'yes' is selected for internet using the drop down at the top of the page. Further down the page all the order tracking info is shown for internet. If 'no' is selected nothing is shown for interent.

Does anyone have an example of dependant drop boxes with illegal characters in them? Even just a teensy one... If I have an example I can manipulate I can actually see what does what... The several-paragraph-long explanation with descriptions of what's being referenced by what and where and why - isn't helping me any.

I have a drop down box in column N, however I would like the options in that drop down box to change depending on what appears in column M.
If column M Says "Lapse" then I want one drop down box to appear in column N, If coumn M says "NTU" then I would like column N to show different drop down options.

I have a very large spreadsheet (almost 9000 rows). I have filters on all columns, however when I click to see all the results for the column under the filter, just to view the contents of the row, some are not there. Does a filter have a limitted amount of rows it can hold.

I have a spreadsheet with a number of columns regulated by Data Validation.
They are linked to lists with DV, which normally generates a nice drop-down box when you click on the cells.
I inserted a column into the spreadsheet, and now DV doesn't generate a drop-box anymore! In any of the columns! The "In-cell dropdown" box is still checked in my Data Validation screen, and the cells are still bound by validation to only conform to the lists.
Can anyone think of why these boxes would have disappeared? I've shut down Excel and re-opened the file in case it was a momentary glitch. I've deleted the inserted column... In short, I've tried everything I can think of.
Even if I remove Data Validation from the columns, and re-instate it with the "In-cell dropdown" box checked, I still don't get my drop-boxes.
I would be totally happy to send my complete file to anyone who wants it (although it's a bit big, as I have to send the directory structure if you don't want to get an error, about 1 MB), but anyhow - I'm reasonably desparate to get the drop-boxes back in.

The drop down validation feature on my sheet isn't working. I have treble checked that the boxes for data validation have been correctly done. In another sheet the same data validation feature is working? Can anyone suggest a reason for this?
If you are stumped I can post a snippet of the offending sheet.

I have a spreadsheet (attached) that has a formula, which calculates the number of days between two dates if another field contains data. My problem is that when I chart the data, it isn't showing up in the chart. Cell G1 (Tab 1) contains a 1 because the document was returned 1 day late. This isn't showing up on the Chart (Tab 2).

For example:
For column E >> The result in column F is: Port Blair.,
I would like that to be in Column D after a match.
Is there any forumula which will do this.,

I have a wordlist (65000 words in Column B*) in a worksheet “w1” and poems (about 21000 rows) in another worksheet “w2” where first verse is always in B and second one in C. The column D of w2 contains of information such poems name, author’s name, book’s name and so on.
I want to search for those verses through a macro which contain words from my wordlist B* w1 and add references to my words that way. It’s about making a dictionary in which each word has a reference to a poem and verses in which it is used.
Column A of w2 has number in it which shows how many times these rows have been already used as reference. Column A of w1 contains of a value “1” or “0” in which “1” means this entry has already been processed or already has a reference and “0” means it has yet to be done.
If my word B* from “w1” exists in verses B or C of “w2” the results should be shown in an userform containing 5 text boxes with 5 results. In each text box a result should be shown “(verse B; verse C); (value of Col.A)” and a checkbox (or a button). That would mean 5 result, 5 textboxes and 5 checkboxes (or 5 buttons). I would like then to choose one of the results by checking the checkbox (or pressing the button) in front of the text box. After I have chosen the result the whole row from w2 should be pasted in following columns of B*. That means the cells from w2 column B,C,D would be pasted to column C,D,E of w1.
The criteria for the search in B and C should be the lowest value in A of “w2”. I mean the w2 rows with lowest A value should be preferred if there are more results. The result showing user form with 5 text boxes and 5 checkboxes(or 5 buttons) which gives me the choice to choose one of the results should also contain a button “search for further results“. For the case none of the results is useful.
As far there are many poems (verses) I would like to prevent using the same verses many times. The more different verses I use as reference for the words in w1 the better it is. Therefore every time a result is picked by me “1” should be added to the value in Column A in w2. And every time search is started the lowest A values should be searched first.
As soon a word has successfully got it’s reference the value in A w1 should be changed from “0” to “1”. And by next search all words with A value “1” should be ignored and only “0” words should be searched for.
Each time a row from w2 is used as reference, the B* word w1 should be added to col. E of w2. If used for many ";" should be the seperator.

I am trying to create a simple user interface type thing so that someone is able to select from drop down lists someones information, such as whether they are male or female, aged between 19-35 or 35-67, whether they are studying in a business area, legal or construction etc (there are 6 variables in total), This will then give the probability of success of the person passing this course based on probabilities which I have already worked out. I have worked out how to do the first stage of creating a drop down list showing alternative choices with Sex, Age etc in the data validation options, however:
There are 517 possible combinations, as in Male aged 19 to 35 studying Business (with other variables) or Male aged 19 to 35 studying Law (+ other variables) etc etc etc each with their own probability of success. Due to the long nature of writing out Male1935BusinessNorthWestWhiteBritishCollegeBrown I have rewritten it so it appears in the excel file as M1935BNWWBCB, which obviously wouldn't make any sense to someone if they had to select M 1935 B NW WB CB from drop down lists.
Along side the M1935BNWWBCB there is the probability of success specific to that type of person. So for example I could would have:
M 60%
M1935 64%
M1935B 35%....

I am making a company wide estimate sheet and having trouble with the drop down box. I have a drop down to pick the branch, but when I name the source it only says branch, even though I named the data on the branch sheet. I would like to be able to pick the branch initials and have it populate the phone and fax number under the main heading but am getting a error there.
Also for the labor is it possible to have it insert the correct labor into the formulas at the labor lines according to which branch is picked from the drop down.

im trying to create a drop down menu that changes depending on the results of a vlookup. example: I have a vlookup function that populates a field with a product name based on the part number, however in some cases there are multiple products with the same part number. is there a way to create a drop down menu that contains all the product names shared by the same part number based on the part number that was entered?

I am using the VLOOKUP function to pull multiple columns of information from another sheet in the same workbook based on a name. The sheet it is pulling from is a query. I am looking up product names, and in the query there may be multiple results that the function can find.
VLOOKUP only returns the first result that is found. What I am trying to do is get it to dump all the results into a drop down list in one cell. If I attach a drop down to one of the columns of information I am retrieving, then I can select which of the entrys to display, right? I think this should work I just don't know how to go about setting it up to do it.
How would I set up a VLOOKUP formula that attaches a drop down list containing all the results that the function finds?

I would like to be able to enter the data into the grey cells and then have the yellow cells auto generate a result. The only problem is that the required value in cell B5 is from when the entered value in B4 is looked up in the table, rounded UP to the next highest value and then the answer from the next cell.
So, if I enter in B4 a value of 500, a lookup is made in the table and the next highest value would be 553 with the correct answer shown in B5 being 13.

Basically what i need to do is create a validation list, the contents of which will be dependant on the entry in another cell. The catch is that the other cell contains an "if" formula.
eg.
A1: 10
B1: =if(A1=10;"A";if(A1=11;"B";if(A1=12;"C";"Invalid Entry"))) ....

I have a worksheet with 4 drop boxes that have the following options in order: 2,28,10,24. My main concern is to make the last drop box depend on the third: so the one with 10 listings will determine which of the 24 will appear according to selection. The other two are not necessarily needed to be dependent although, they will be pulling different data according to the selections. How to make the last two be dependent? The combo box selections will determine the values pulled for four different time frames.

In the file I have attached, I need to work out how to give the final total (cell G27) inclusive of VAT, dependent on the value assigned in cells K17-K26, which are explained in the list starting cell B29.
At the moment the value given is net of VAT, and I need the total figure in G27 to recognise that the first item needs to be at 15%, the second at 5% and the 3rd at 0%.

I have a Filter set up across a few columns of data. Lets say one of the columns is called "Hours", and another is called "User". There is another cell called "Totals" outside of the Filter.
What I would like to have is a self-updating Totals cell that will Sum the total number of Hours for whatever the Filter is currently showing.
Examples:
If I set the Filter to show only UserA's data, the Totals cell will Sum the Hours for UserA.
If I set the Filter to show All Users with Hours greater than 2, the Totals cell will Sum all the Hours greater than 2.
If I set the Filter to show UserB and UserC and Hours less than 5...well you get the idea.
Can I write a function that loops through the data that meets the Filter's criteria? Do I need to create a macro to update the Totals cell each time the Filter is changed? Is there an easier way that I don't know about?

I want to show the number of weeks remaining from the sum of a column BUT I want it to distinguish between the entry in another column.
See below.
Columns B to L represent a number of weeks
EG1
Column C: Year 1 has a set amount of 47 and C156 displays this.
C157 should display the amount of weeks in Column C but only when a number "1" appears in Column "Y" C158 displays the total amount remaining
EG2
Column H: Year 2 has a set amount of 38 and H160 displays this.
H161 should display the amount of weeks in Column C but only when a number "2" appears in Column "Y" C162 displays the total amount remaining

so basically, im trying to find a way to get cell G3 to have Value X dependant on value from Cell G2. e.g. if cell g2 is 8 and 9, g3=10 if g2 is 11, g3=20 and so on. i dont mind having to add a preset table of values if we need, but it would be set on sheet 2.
EDIT
Value from cell G2 will always be between 4 and 20, set by the user. what i want is that each of those values gives G3 a pre-planned value.
if g2 has value 4. g3 value would be -5
if g2 has value 5. g3 value would be 0
if g2 has value 6. g3 value would be 5
if g2 has value 7. g3 value would be 5
if g2 has value 8. g3 value would be 10
if g2 has value 9. g3 value would be 10
if g2 has value 10. g3 value would be 15
if g2 has value 11. g3 value would be 20
if g2 has value 12. g3 value would be 20
if g2 has value 13. g3 value would be 25
and so on until it reaches g2=20
i was thinking of setting a table on sheet 2 for the g3 values, and get an IF function to do something like IF g2 = a then x, if g2 = b then y etc etc. im just not sure how it would work, unless an INDEX function would work better?

I've been making a userform to enter data into a list of clients for our school counsellor. I've been using date picker to select the date, which works fine, but is a bit fiddly for a novice user (which the counsellor is) to jump down years.
My half-solution has been to change the data to a very rough guess of their data (so it's no more than a year or so away) - by taking their school year (years 7 to 11) in one combo box, adding 5, multiplying by 365 and taking the that number of days from the current date.
Private Sub CmbYear_Change()
DTPicker1.Value = Date - ((5 + CmbYear.Value) * 365)
End Sub
And although it changes the content of the datepicker date, I get an error when I click my ADD button.
Run-time Error '13':
Type Mismatch
And here's the code for my ADD button.
Private Sub CmdAdd_Click()
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Clients").Activate
Range("A3").Select

I am trying to make an Excel sheet with a frontpage sheet and a data sheet. In the data sheet I have several columns with data and then in the end a cloumn with pictures. On the front page sheet I can easily with VLOOKUP formulas transfer the desired data from the data sheet to the front page sheet but I cannot seem to figure out how to copy the picture. When I try to copy the cell with the picture in it, the formula only copies the cell value, which is "0" because the only thing which is in the cell is the picture. how to copy a given picture from one sheet to another based on the information in another cell like a "Vlookup" formula?
