Predictive Text In List Dropdown?
Oct 31, 2011
I have a list of locations, I then clicked another cell went to Data tab and selected Data Validation, and then clicked under "Allow" the List option and for source I put the range of my locations.
So I now have a list dropdown of locations.
What I need to do is add predicitive text to this, so when the user selects L, it for example shows london. This works when u use the filter option, but I need it to work using List Dropdown, is this possible, >? maybe via VBA code.

I am trying to get predictive text to work for a dropdown box that I will then be able save as a csv.
In the excel file I have three columns with the first, at the moment, being a drop down box that I need to scroll through to select the option I need and the next two columns being information that I need to manually fill in. The dropdown is becoming increasingly big so if I was able to start typing the start of the information in column A .
I have tried making a combo box and although it gave the predictive text element it didn't export the text in column A in the csv. I have never used combo boxes before, so there is a very good chance that I am using it incorrectly, but it just seems to be plonked on and not actually within cell A1.
I need the predictive text drop down boxes to be in every one of the boxes in column A, or at very least the first 50 of them.

I have a drop down list of locations, which when one is selected I would like to show an abbreviated version in a different cell (say B5). I have tried the following so far:
=IF(A5 = "London", "LON")
But I would need to do this for around 30 locations and would need the abbreviated version in the same cell.

I created a dropdown menu, that asks you make a choice from a list.
"Under 5"
"Between 5 and 10"
"Over 10"
However I want to connect the choice to a certain number and use it for a formula. For example:
"Under 5" is equal to 1
"Between 5 and 10" is equal to 2
"Over 10" is equal to 3
So if I make a formula to multiply the cell that says Under 5, excel to understand it is actually the digit 1.

I am not sure if this can be done easily but essentially what I have is a userform that fills out a form that will used by several different people and saved to a central location.
There is a blank combobox currently labeled "Supplier:" that each person fills out each time on the userform (there are no dropdowns yet).
What I am wanting to do is for every person who saves (I have coded the save button) with the "Supplier:" combobox filled out to save what they entered and input that into the combobox dropdown so when the next person uses the userform the entry the previous person entered would be in the combobox as an option to select.
Essentially, a combobox populates itself based on what previous users have entered into it.

I have a spreadsheet where user can search for information inside a search box and the appropriate rows are returned using formulas.
I have a drop down list (Category: Model) in the search box as well as a search field (Category: Program, cell D2). Underneath the search box, search rows are returned with column categories: Program, Model, etc.
What I require is that if a user enters the specific program into the search field D2, then the dropdown list would automatically choose which model that program belongs to based on the returned row.
For example, if I typed "engine" into D2 and pressed enter,
Under the records section (Row 14 and beyond), the following record will pop up:
Program
Model
Indicators
Engine
F-16
3a
Based on the record, F-16 would be chosen from the dropdown list. Is there any way this can be done?

I'm looking for a macro to jump to and select a cell if it matches the text in another cell based on a drop down list. So I have a drop down list in cell c57 and a form control search button right next to it. I want the user to be able to select from the drop down, click search and then jump to the cell that matches what they selected. I would like the macro to search from B:60 - B629.

I am charged with building a predictive model that can find items in a hospital inventory that will expire before they are used. The idea is simple: if I use an item every week, this item has an expiration date of 50 weeks from now, and I have 60 on the shelf, then I will likely expire 10 of the items.
The complexity is that there are multiple expiration dates. So, I want be able to look down a list of 3000 items, find the multiple entries of expiration dates, and isolate them based on criteria (select, for example, the first chronologically expiration date).

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 found code online that I can put on my sheet to get my formatting properties to stay the same for the items in my dropdown list located on another page. However the code does not work for conditional formatted cells...which is what I need. This is the code that I have that will carry over regular formatted cells. Just not Conditional formatted cells.

I have 3 related dropdown lists that work perfectly, if you enter data from left to right. But, if you click in the cell containing the second list, which is based on the first list, of which nothing has been selected, you can just type any value in the cell. Is there a way to prevent this, or at least validate that what is entered is a value in the list.

fill the column "Level 2 Area" based on the value selected from "Level 1 Area" which is coming from a drop down list. So the "Level 2 Area" will be a drop down list also based on the selected value from the drop down list from "Level 1 Area".
Level 1 Area
Level 2 Area

Im trying to organize a tools inventory list. Its supposed to be sort of like an order sheet for each department. But what I want to do is when I select either CARPENTRY, or any of the other trades from a drop-down list, I'll be able to select from another drop-down list items associated with that trade in particular. So eventually I want the master data hidden, preferably in another sheet. I searched all of Google but it seems a bit complicated to get it done. I've attached the sheet so that you can see what I'm talking about. MOVE IN MASTER LIST.xlsx

I was wondering if there is a way to add to a list by a drop down selection.
If there isn't is there a way to do this task easier than copying and pasting?
Here is an example - I'm trying to add the name Benson to the AZ Name list.
Here is an illustration with the drop down but if I can't do this then is there any way that's easier than copying/pasting?

I am trying to make a spreadsheet where I use a drop down menu for several of my vendors. When I select the Vendor's name from the drop down menu (for example in A1), I would like A2 to display that vendor's phone number. But when I switch vendor name from drop down list in A1, A2 would need to reflect the new vendor's contact info.

I'm required by my manager to produce password protected dropdown list (I use the data validation feature) for purchase order requester. I have been working on it for 2 days now, I somehow got it but it doesnt seem foolproof; as i often get error message after running it a few times.
Basically, all I need is to come up with a unique password for each name for listed in the "Requester". Whenever I click on it, it will prompt me to enter password.Different names requires different password, otherwise it will return as a blank cell.
What are the steps how to edit data validation if possible.
Attached is the requester list : Requester List.xlsx

I have a data validation list that has approx 40 items.When I select the cell with the drop down list - only 10 or so items appear . I then have to use the scroll bar on the side to look further in the list. Is there a way that more than 10 or so ( possibly all ) items appear in the drop down box when the cell is selected - or is there a way that one can scroll down using the mouse wheel. ( I have to use the scroll bar at the moment ).

I have a large amount of sheets in a workbook (, say 70). For example:
1 GrandMastersheet of pets
.....1 Mastersheet of dogs
.................1 sheet of little dogs
.................1 sheet of big dogs
.................1 sheet of blue dogs
......1 Mastersheet of cats
.................1 sheet of black cats
.................1 sheet of white cats
.....1 Mastersheet of snakes ()
.................1 sheet of cobra's
etc. etc. etc.
The names of the sheets in the lowest level are quite long. Creating a icon with a macro/hyperlink in it is not what I want. (Boxes are too big and there would be too many boxes.)
This is what I would like: A clickable dropdownlist in the Mastersheets, that only show the lower level sheets of that category. For example:
A dropdownlist on the dogs Mastersheet that only show the words 'little dogs', 'big dogs' and 'blue dogs'. These words should be clickable and insta-hyperlinked to the specific sheet.

I was just wondering if it would be possible to emphasize a drop down list. Basically, because you can only see if there is a drop down list when you hover over the cell, it want to be able to see that there is a drop down list on the cell even when not hovering over it?
