Drop Down List Which Returns Values Based On What Has Been Selected In The Previous Drop Down List In The Adjacent Cell

Mar 19, 2009

I'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.

Drop Down List Which Displays A Different Set Of Values Depending Upon The Value Selected By A Previous Drop Down List

Oct 26, 2009

I 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 .

Insert Text In A Group From A Drop-Down List

Aug 22, 2008

I'll set up the situation first: I have a group of cells (arranged in a esthetic manner) across several rows of columns. For example, column A1 to N1, rows 1 to 5.

I'm hoping to set up a drop-down list in a cell (we'll use A2 as an example), with different options that will determine what text is displayed in different cells in the group when the user selects it.

For example, if I selected option 2, it would display different text in cell B4 than if I choose option 1. Again for option 3, etc.

If this is at all possible, there is an additional question. Can this format also insert drop-down lists, instead of text, in select cells?

AutoComplete Entry In Text Box Or Drop Down List

Jun 1, 2009

I currently have showing 800 suppliers in a List Box... sadly when having to search for a sepcific supplier this seems to be very fustrating and time comsuming for people in the Company.

I have tried the method of copying all of the Supplier above the list, so it can do an AutoComplete filter, but the data needs to be exact.

What i would really like is if i was to type the letter "V" in the cell, it would be able to provide me with a list of the "V" suppliers in a list.

Populate Multiple Text Cells Using Corresponding Drop Down List?

Jul 5, 2014

The list is a crew list and I'd like to be able to select the foreman, but I'd like the crew cells to be populated with the information corresponding to that specific foreman. I've named the data range and created the drop down list but i cant figure out why the crew column wont populate with the crew. I am using a different sheet for my data.

I tried VBA but I am hoping I can use Index and Match.

=INDEX(crew, MATCH(C10, Personel!D2:F4, 0), COLUMN())

Wrap Text Macro

Sep 22, 2009

I added a shortcut Button using a Macro on the Menu Bar on Word Wrap (Format > Cells > Alignment > Tick Wrap Text). However, that button is working only on the Workbook I created. When I created the macro, I did not have the option of putting it in "Personal Macro Workbook"? How can I make that button work on all Worksheet I operate in Excel from now?

Text Disappears When Word Wrap Is Used

Sep 7, 2005

Whenever word wrap is applied the text is not visable in the cell. It
remains visable only in the bar above.

I have already confirmed autofit and it reduces the column to 1 character
wide.

I tried detect and repair on the installation and nothing.

I even upgraded from Excel 2k to Excel 2003 and no change.

Wrap Text For A Column Without Changing Values

Jun 26, 2014

I'm trying to execute something like this: [URL] ......

but without changing the cell value... I basically want a button that will wrap/unwrap all of the cells in the "B" column with one click. If i have to do the cell range for every individual cell in column B that's fine, but I can't seem to make the above example work while keeping the cell contents the same.

Macro- If 46 Characters In A Cell, Text Wrap

Sep 2, 2008

Is there a way to specify if there are 46 characters in a cell, to apply text wrap, indent the second line, and resize the row height to 25.5?

For example, I always will have text on merged cells B7:C7. I'd like to have a macro that determines if the text goes over C7 (I figured that it would take 46 characters to do this), that the merged cells will be text wrapped, then row 7 will be resized to 25.5.

I know how to record a macro that will text wrap and resize the row height but am not sure how to do the "if" condition.

Wrap Text In Merged Cells Macro

Feb 11, 2009

want to merge cells!

I have several columns "A" thru "J" with simple contents, part#, qty, date, etc. and in column "K" descriptive text which can run several sentences long.

I'm trying to record a macro to insert a row, merge "A" thru "J" in that new row, cut the text from the "K" cell in the row above and select wrap text so it shows up below those headings so my user can read it.

Would look like:

I can get it to look like that if I grab the row borders and drag it to fit, but can I get it to increase row height and wrap to fit the text length automatically with the macro?

Code looks like this so far:

Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+M

Dialog box pops up "This operation will cause some merged cells to unmerge.

I'm going to have a shortcut key in the macro to do this one row at a time, as the data isn't that extensive, but I don't want to have to drag all the row heights.

Wrap Text If Input From Message Box Is Over 100 Characters

Jun 17, 2007

A user inputs a string into a message box. A particular cell on a worksheet is then given the value of this string. I would like to have this cell automatically format to Wrap Text if the string is longer than 100 characters and skip to the next line after each 100 characters. However, if 101th character is part of a word, then that word would be on the next line. If the string is less than 100 characters then the cell is simply given the value of the inputted string ( I know how to do this )

Autofit Merged Cells With Wrap Text

Aug 6, 2007

I found referred to writing a vba code such as the one below:

Sub Format()
Rows(x).entirerow.autofit
End Sub

I have tried a vba code such as the one above but the issue persists.

I have a worksheet with merged cells [horizontal]; each cell is also formatted to warp text.

The issue is that the row size or cell size [vertical] does not adjust when the user types more text than what the cell size can handle.

Custom Number Format With Wrap & Text

Sep 14, 2007

I have been playing with custom formats recently and I'm wondering if there is anyway to make them wrap?

specifically I have several results that I have been formatting to show what they are related to

397235 visitors 392648 visitors 365487 visitors

I want these to display as visitors, but still be numbers so that they can be summed etc.
The problem is that I need the text to wrap so that visitors is on the second line in the cell. unfortunatley all i get is a ########## error to show the cell is not wide enough even with wrap text turned on.

Insert New Row To Add More Rows To Merge Range With Wrap Text?

Aug 8, 2014

I have a sheet that has a section in range (c18:k25) (it is merged and text is wrapped) If that amount of space is not adequate to fit all their information I would like to add a macro that when activated it asks how many rows would you like to add and then based on that number whether it be 1-10 it would insert a new row to that merged range so they can continue adding more information . I have the sheet locked down to prevent changes so it would have to be unlocked and then re-locked within the macro.

Join Text & Wrap: Add A Figure To The First Part Of The Cell

Jan 11, 2007

This is not related to macro - it's an excel question regarding wrapped-around text within a cell (i.e.: text brought onto next line by <Alt>+<Enter>)...

SayI have the following in a cell :
Car<Alt>+<Enter>
Truck<Alt>+<Enter>
Van

and say I want to add a figure (in this example 1A) to the first part of the cell and then another to the second line of wrapped text and so on. How can I split the cell (or lookup the first 'wrapped' line) so that I can then perform changes (using formulas with '&' to combine etc or whatever) so that in the end cell have the following:

Car 1A<Alt>+<Enter>
Truck 2C<Alt>+<Enter>
Van 1B
