Create A Drop Down List With The Items In Column A

Jan 25, 2010

In Column A I have a list of Products and in Column B is the list of corresponding prices. I'd like to create a drop down list with the items in Column A that would automatically fill-in the pricing from Column B next to it. I've tried using an IF statement, but my product list is too long.

Create A Drop Down List And Use Lookup To Get Corresponding Items

Nov 12, 2009

I am making a spreadsheet for food and calories, On sheet one i have a meal tracker, I want to have a drop down list in colum 1 that references the food list on sheet 2, column A=food, column B=Protien, column C=Carbs, column D=fat. The values from Sheet 2 columns B-D would then be inserted into Sheet A in the respective slots. I have fiddled with vlookup and tried numerous things but I can't seem to figure this out.

Creating A Unique List Of Items In Column A That Have A Corresponding Non-zero Value In Column B, I.e. Excluding All Items Where Sumif ColumnB Would Sum To 0

Jul 17, 2009

I know how to use array formulae to create a unique list, i.e.{=INDEX($G$1:$G$760,SMALL(IF(ROW($G$1:$G$760)=MATCH($G$1:$G$760,$G$1:$G$760,0),ROW($G$1:$G$760)),ROW()))}

however this is giving all the unique items from column G and I only want the unique items that have a non-zero value in column H as well. This would be the sumif of all instances that would have to be zero. I've tried to crack it and I've tried to search for solutions but so far no joy.

Create A Drop-down List To Run Macro

Using Array To Create List Of Selected Items?

Mar 2, 2014

I've created a range B3:B12 in which each cell returns TRUE of FALSE. There corresponding values are listed in C3:C12. I have the same thing again in D3:D12 and E3:E12. Checkboxes link to the TRUE/FALSE cells. Attached is a stripped down file to show this.

I want to create a formula that lists each item in the one cell (no spaces required inbetween) for use with a search. I know a long winded way to do this involving many IFs but any array will be much more tidier, thing is I hardly use arrays and have struggled with this one.

I'm thinking it will be along the lines of =IF(B3:B12="TRUE",C3:C12,"")&IF(D3:D12="TRUE",E3:E12,"") but exactly what it should be is beyond me.

EDIT: The original file attached was corrupt for some reason, the new attachedment is the same except instead of TRUE/FALSE cells I've set them to 'x' for quickness (lost my work...!).

I want to create another column (automatically) that lists each of of those once:

Create Default For Dependent Drop Down List

Feb 18, 2010

I'm using dependent drop-down lists. In the first box the user can choose a color which drives a set of options in the second box. (e.g. User selects "Red" and in the second dropdown they can then choose "Red A", "Red B", "Red C", etc.). Right now, if you select "Orange", it will still show "Red A" from the previous selection until the user selects the dropdown in the dependent box to refresh the list of options. Is there a way to make it so that second dropdown box will default to "Orange A"?

I tried writing some code to do this, but I can't seem to make it work. I've attached my file.

Create Drop-Down List Using Increasing/Decreasing Range

Oct 3, 2006

I have a list of jobs being displayed using the following code. All sheet names that start with AJ, CJ and PJ within the workbook are how the list is created.

Sub ListSheets()
Dim sht As Worksheet
Dim lRow As Long
Dim rCell As Range

With Sheet1

Set rCell = .Cells(2, 12)
End With

For Each sht In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
Select Case UCase(Left(sht.Name, 2))
Case Is = "AJ", "CJ", "PJ"
lRow = lRow + 1
rCell(lRow, 1) = sht.Name

Case Else
End Select
Next sht

End Sub

what i want to do is create a drop list within each job sheet within the workbook that will display the names of the jobs above. Now the thing is I cannot choose the range like normal from data - validation - list as I will not know how many job names will be displayed so I dont know how many cells to include in the range.

Macro To Create A Dialog Box For Entering And Updating Drop Down List?

Oct 31, 2013

This is what I'm trying to do:

1. When a user clicks on a Drop down box and selects "Add New", I would like a Macro to run

2. I want this Macro to open up a Dialog/Text box to say "Enter New Information" where the user can enter in some text

3. The text that is entered by the user into this box will be added as a new entry into the Drop down box selection

My VBA knowledge is still at a beginner's level and I know how to get a Macro to run based on a cell value. However I don't know how to create a Macro for the dialog box nor do I know how to create a Macro for updating the drop-down items.

Excel 2010 :: Limitation On Formula To Create List Of Unique Items

Jan 21, 2014

Excel 2010. There is a limit to the usability of the

=INDEX($A$1:$A$1000,MATCH(0,COUNTIF($A$1:$A$1000,"<"&$A$1:$A$1000),0))

method. It seems like the limitation is in the Countif function going over 1000 (or some other size limit)

I have a list of ~1500 rows, of that there are approximately 55 unique items. Doing the unique array works correctly up until item ~40, upon which it fails by returning the 1st item only (for the rest).

Trying to debug, and pulling out the Match section, it functions up until 976 (that is

MATCH(0,COUNTIF($N$1:$N40,$C$3:$C$1500),0)

returns 976) anything after returns just 1 (1st item).

It seems to be a limitation on the text string size that COUNTIF can handle.

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.

List Of Items In A Column

Nov 1, 2007

I have a list of items in a column. I would like to have a userform pop up with a list box (?) of all the items and I want to be able to select multiple items to perform an action on the row corresponding to the selected item.

I am thinking of other examples I have seen where there are two list boxes (?) and then arrow buttons between them. When you click the arrow the item moves from one list box to the other to see which have been selected.

I have never used list boxes before so if you have a link to some sample code that would be useful.

If x = myvalue Then Me.ListBox1.AddItem x
A = A + 1
Loop Until Sheet1.Cells(A, 4).Value = ""

The problem is how to alter this code to place the value from column 5 into the ListBox as well as the Value from column 4

How To Generate Dropdown List With Data Which Uses Column To Identify Items

Apr 18, 2014

I have in column A and B. A includes two (or may be more) kind of items, i.e. drink and snack. Column B has for example water next to drink and chips next to snack. The list is huge.

How can I generate a drop down list with data which uses the A column to identify the items which it should include. I want to make two separate drop down lists for drink and snack and each should include only those options which belong to those categories. I.e. drink list should be like water, cola, pepsi, etc. The problem is that the list is huge and it's not possible to sort it. Some kind of if statement structure with named range? The drop down should be dynamic in a sense that if I add line to data, it should be picked to the right drop down menu.

Create Sub-list From Larger List And Find MIN Value In Another Column?

Feb 6, 2014

I am looking for a formula to search two columns.

1) The first column needs to be search to match a text string.

2) If the text string matchs, I need excel to evaluate the number in the second column and find the MIN value of all numbers associated with the text string.

So:

Joe 50
Jim 12
Joe 10
Rob 25
Jim 8
Rob 99

When searching for "Joe", the function would return 10. When searching for "Jim" the function would return 8. For "Rob", it would return "25".
