Auto Update Or Resync Values In Data Validated Lists
Feb 8, 2010
I was wondering if there was some way to auto update or resync values in data validated lists which are dependant on information in other cells.
I attach my spreadsheet. My list in Cell F32 changes depending on what has been selected in cell F31. However, my problem is that, until you select cell F32, it still keeps the previous value on display, if you know what I mean. So! What I would like to happen, is when I select a different option in cell F31, then I would like cell F32 to update and show the first available option from the new list?

I am trying to create an easy fill spreadsheet for a game. I am looking to have data values auto fill based off of the entry of 2 prior drop down menus.
I would like to have values for "Move", "Str", "Spd", "Skill", "Armor", and "Value" auto populate after the "Race" and "Role" has been selected. Data for these auto fills I have put on Sheet2 while the main file itself is on Sheet1.
If possible I would like to have Value increase by 5 for every level in "Rank" on the sheet.

Do not use validated drop down lists in merged cells.
It will only be a matter of time before it breaks Excel.

When copying data from a closed workbook, I frequently get the prompt:
"Links to 'Source.xls' were not updated because 'Source.xls' was not recalculated before it was last saved.
To update links with current values in 'Source.xls', click OK..."
Is there a way I can bypass this prompt and automatically update with the saved (uncalculated) values and therefore not require a user intervention?

I have a graph that is showing the date on "Y" axis and a value on "X" axis, when I add a new date and value to my data the graph does not update, it just shows the data when I first created the graph.
How do I get the graph to display the new data I entered ?
I created a line graph by clicking on the "A" in column "A" (Thats where my date is) then clicking on the "B" in column "B" (Thats where my values are) and clicking the create graph button then clicked finished.

consolidating data from 3 worksheets which contain same data fields but each representing 1 brand. I like to have a summary/mastersheet to contain data from all 3 worksheets and then when the data in each worksheet is added or updated, the summary worksheet should reflect the changes (adding new data to the last row).

This area of my worksheet, Sheets("ACTIVITY").Range("AM2:AM172"), is currently populated by text values from a dynamic, validated list, 'DEL_2'.
Is there a simple way to effectively 'toggle' (on/off) data validation - maybe with right-click - in this area, so that the user can type what they want if their chosen option can't be found in DEL_2?

I am making a spreadsheet that allows users to select items from a validated data list. Each item in the list has a numeric value in an adjacent column. When the user is entering data they will select from a drop down of the data list in column "A" and I would like to have the numeric value that corresponds with their selection to then autofill in column "B". I have tried VLOOKUP and IF formulas but cannot seem to get anything to work.

I'm trying to write macro for hiding columns based on a drop down answer. The drop down would be in cell B7 on Sheet 1. The colums affected would be in each worksheet in the workbook. The data validation would have a drop down selection choice of 1 through 16. The columns affected range would be H through W. For example, in the drop down if 1 was selected, only column H would show. If two, H and I would show...etc. This macro should affect all worksheets in the workbook EXCEPT sheet 1.

I have a Change Event macro that works properly. I also have several cells that contain a drop down list. If a user tries to enter an incorrect entry...the debug is triggered on my even change macro.
Here's the piece of the Change macro that has issues. Specifically, the .undo line highlights.
With Application
.ScreenUpdating = False
.EnableEvents = False
Set SelectedCell = ActiveCell
myTitle = Cells(Range("Titles").Row, Target.Column).Value
myRow = Target.Row
.Undo: myBefore = Target.Value
.Undo: myAfter = Target.Value
SelectedCell.Select

I would like to Use two drop down list with two set of information to automatically update fields.
I have Job Titles (1-6) and Step (1-5). Each Job Title has a new pay rate and each step is an increase in pay. What I am trying to do is set up a drop down list where some one can drop down Job Title and step and have the rate automatically fill in.
I am able to get the Job title to auto fill the rate field, but am having trouble incorporating the step into the formula.
Here is what i currently have:
=VLOOKUP(H6,'Pay Rate'!$B$2:$G$12,3,FALSE)
H6 = Job tilte field on 'WorkSheet' (Sheet1)
'Pay Rate'!$B$2:$G$12 = Sheet2 and Step increases per Job Title
3 = the current column I was working with in order to make the rate appear
False = for exact info
I do not want to combine the two columns but keep them separate drop down list.

I have one source spreadsheet, where are columns NAME, DATE. I read these data by ADO to other spreadsheet, where I can change/delete data and then run macro for update data in source spreadsheet. The problem: In source spreadsheet is column "NAME" and column "DATE", with values e.g. "Joseph"; 1.1.1980. I read this data to other spreadsheet, then I delete in it value 1.1.1980. When I run macro Update, it messages error.
Sub UpdateItem
...
.Fields.Item(1).value = activecell 'activecell value = "Joseph"
If Not isempty(activecell.offset(0,1)) Then
.Fields.Item(2).value = activecell.offset(0,1).value
Else
.Fields.Item(2).value = "" 'I tried Empty and 0 too but when I read data again then, it displays 0.1.1900, nothing works
End If
...
End Sub
It seems that in source spreadsheet has data in column "Date" format Date and when I try to update data in format String ("") in source spreadsheet by Update macro, it messages error. When I used
.Fields.Item(2).Value = Empty
' or
.Fields.Item(2).Value = 0
after rereading data it displays 0.1.1900 What I want to get is that if the cell with date (in other spreadsheet) is empty, the cell in column Date in source spreadsheet after updating will be blank (contains no values).

I have a 2-part question:
1) How can I create 2 lists dependent on the same primary list?
2) Once I get number1 resolved, I have a data sheet of 30 col and over 6k rows. I need to create a report that when a user select the 3 options from the dropdown lists (Category, Location, Product) the Report sheet will get populated with data from my data sheet based on those selections. I'm looking to have somewhere between 10 and 13 columns (numerical, general, text data type). Is there a way to automate this process vs. writing 10s of lookup formulas? to bring the data in? My workbook is already over 25MB!

I update a daily incident report that is sorted by priority of the request as well as the date/time. In the past, I've recorded and run macro's to add a number to a priority so that it can sort numerically. Lately I've been tasked with building similar functionality into more reports. I am wondering whether I can tell Excel what order to sort items into (ie "Sort by HIGH, then MEDIUM-HIGH, then MEDIUM, then LOW)?
With regards to auto-fill lists (for want of the proper name), I report on multiple IT systems that fall into six "system" categories. Is there a way I can set up the "System" column to automatically update the correct data once the IT service is entered, rather than manually look up systems category then click the relevant system in the drop down box?

I have been tasked with coming up with a solution to an excel issue my boss has. I'll try to explain it as simply as I can but it might get confusing.
We have workbooks containing ledgers for a retail establisment. We create a new book for each year. Each book contains a sheet per month. We also have a comparison book/sheet. Currently we have the rolling total for each line item transfer over to the comparison sheet and then manually workout and enter the data for the same day from the previous year. What we would like to do is have the data from 2008 automatically update as we update the 2009 data.

i have a workbook that pulls data from 7 other workbooks based off of 3 criteria. In 6 of the 7 workbooks there are 6 sheets and in the last sheet there are 15sheet. All the sheets are used on different computers and currently the member who use these sheets cant remember to save them so the main workbook can pull the information. So I was hoping for a VB code to do the save for them after they enter any data in the range of A1:J50.
Then for the main work book i was hoping for a VB code to auto update after entering the 3 criteria. I have a marco made but it takes awhile to do it. First it saves the sheet, then pulls the information, then refreshes some pivot table, then populates into the proper cells.

I have a spreadsheet of 30 or so tabs, all of identical layout, with columns B to AS used. Each day I have to drag a row down to collect data from various other spreadsheets, on each of the 30 tabs (different data in each tab, but same format), i.e. today I dragged down B216:AS216 down to B217:AS217 for all 30 tabs. I could record a Macro on the first tab and then play it for the remaining 29, but I have to record the Macro each day so it drags down the next row down.
I am after a Macro that will drag down the columns to the current date (which is in column A and is already entered down to the end of the year) on all tabs, so if I left it for 5 days etc, and then ran the Macro, it will drag down 5 rows. But if I had to run it 5 times that wouldn't matter. A button on the first sheet would be brilliant too, meaning I could open it up, click the button, and then all 30 tabs would drag down to todays date.

I am in charge of a report spreadsheet which gets updated by my users multiple times a day. The spreadsheet is called the R-A-G report (red, amber, green). One of the columns has colours which are updated manually in accordance to the ammount of stock we have in the database (oracle column) and in our warehouse (utl column).
Right now the users update these colours manually, using a key at the bottom of the spreadsheet. My dream is to have these colours auto-updating when a macro is run.
I spent a little time and wrote a very basic macro, but there are a few problems with it. For one i do not think that the macro fills out of the possible variables; therefor it has around 50% accuracy.
I have uploaded the file and would really appreciate if i could get some feedback on how i could write this correctly, maybe some usefull websites specifically directed at elseif (if that is the correct code for me to use).
