I'm trying to use data validation to restrict the user to only selecting values in a list which I create. Right now, the list is a named range. I'd like to get rid of the range and just use a named list. I create a name using the following as my list.
Insert > Name > Create
Name: Fruit
Refers to:
banana,apple,orange
When I try to use the name Fruit in my data validation, I get the message "The List Source must be a delimited list, or a reference to single row or column." I thought my name "fruit" was a delimited list.
i want to do is, have a list that picks from a color and then beside it, it will show the possible fruit that is that color for example
Red
apple
cherry
strawberry
OR
Green
watermelon
grapes
The number of fruit will differ by the color so i know i need a counter there, but i am not sure how to list the fruit after i've picked the color
if it is possible to have a selection from a list change the list for another cell?
For example, if I have a drop down list in A1 which is "Apples, bananas, pears", and I select "Apples", is it possible for A2 to have a list of "Green, Red, Yellow", and if I select "Bananas" in A1, for A2 to have a list of "Yellow, Black, Blue"?
I have a list of Products in my Excel file, I am trying to put them into categories easily. So what I am asking is there a way to select all rows with a certain key word in them so I can easily paste them into my other excel file?

Is it possible to restrict the values of cells in a particular column to entries defined in a list BUT to allow each cell in that column to display multiple items from the list (seperated by a comma for example). I've attached an example of what I would like to do -
In Sheet "2010 Data" I want to be able to select multiple values in column F....(the values are defined within the list named "Platforms" on the worksheet called "Lookups"
I have attached the data in an excel file here. I'd like to select (or highlight) the rows (based on names) in the table on sheet1 based on the list provided in sheet 2. I've been struggling with using a formula for this one. The list on sheet 2 may be longer than the table on sheet 1(since there are entries on the list which might not be present in the table column 2), and the reverse may also be true. I would like to select "entire rows" of names in the table that are there on the list on sheet 2, not just the names column in the table. See the desired result on sheet 3.

I found the code on this forum and changed a little bit to make it work for my application.
I am not sure if this is the most effective way, but it works.
The user would select from a list of names on sheet1 and click "send_mail" button. What I need done is to send sheet2 as an attachment.
The problem: The code is looking for address in cell "H7" on sheet2. I want to keep the address on sheet1, but send out sheet2.
If I copy the address from sheet1 to sheet2 in cell "H7", everything works fine. So I need soemone to help me change the code, so it will send out sheet2, but read address on sheet1.
My wife is a teacher and she has asked me if there was a way of randomly selecting a child's name from a pre-defind list and for that child not to be selected again during that session.
Some criteria:
Up to 35 children in the class (selected from a pre-defind list)A child can only by picked on once during the lessonA method needs to be in place for seelcting the child's name (either a button that can be pressed, or another option).
I currently have a huge data sheet with multiple columns of information. It contains a list of projects organized by columns with information pertaining to each project. I've named this worksheet data.
On another sheet I've named Present, I'm trying to find a way to reference a single project at a time using a drop down list. The Present Sheet has a list of characteristics fields that need to be filled with information from "data" worksheet. I want the characteristics to change whenever I choose another project name from the drop down list.
I have a worksheet with a Drop Down list (Set up with Data Validation).
All I want to do is a call a procedure when a particular option is selected from the list, without have to run the macro manually.
I've made a drop down list and when I select multiple cells and choose from the drop down list, it only fills one. Here's pictures:
So in that first picture, I've selected multiple cells. But when I drop down the menu and click my selection, this happens:
Why is it that all the cells I've selected does not fill with the option that I chose from the drop down. I highly doubt that I have to manually click all the ones I want to fill with what I choose from the drop down list.
how i can select the most recent 10 cells from a list of data to be included in a formula. I have selected it manually, for example F122:F131. This is fine but i don't know how i can put it so that it will update to the 10 most recent results when i input another line of data. So when i put in more data it stays on the previously selected. I want it to move shift down to include the new data but only the 10 most recent.
View 5 Replies View RelatedBasically on a summary page, on sheet 1 say I have a formula which picks up the unit cost (I have this as an array across 5 years)
What I then want to do is multiply this by a volume driver. I have a list of these drivers on a seperate page, so for convenience lets say DRIVER_01,DRIVER_02 etc. These are also 5 years arrays.
So what I want to do it be able to select which driver I want to use for volume on the summary, from a drop down box I have set up, and then the formula pick up that named range, and not just recognise it as a text cell.
I need the ability to change the driver in the future, hence the drop down box. I can also get the unit array part to work fine, I'm just struggling to get this driver array to work..............
I'm trying to make a spreadsheet that can be used to easily build a collective list of steps, for a user to read and follow line-by-line.
I want a source sheet of "steps" that I can change over time, and the resulting tabs that reference the source sheet get updated/populated automatically.
I've pieced together some VBA code from other sources, which kind of does what I want it to:
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Row > 1 And Target.Column = 1 Then
Dim SourceSheet As Worksheet
Set SourceSheet = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Steps")
Dim TargetSheet As Worksheet
Set TargetSheet = Target.Worksheet
Dim c As Integer
Dim Source As Range
[Code]...
But there are some problems:
1) The data auto-populates into a row. It would read better if each step was in the same column, meaning rows would need to be automatically added upon selecting something from the drop-down list. The number of rows that need to be added vary based on the number of steps in the source sheet, for the selection made from the drop-down list.
2) If you make a change to the source sheet, my goal is to have the other sheets referencing the source sheet's lists of steps update automatically, so you only need to update the steps in one spot and everything you've built from them gets updated instantly. Currently, you must select a different choice from the drop-down list, and then change it back, before it populates the "new" steps from the source sheet.
This is my first time using VBA.
What I have so far is attached: testAutoPopulate.xlsm
I have a dropdown list in C24:C50 (=CategoryList) with data validation and a sub list in D24:D50 (=ItemList) with data validation. I am looking for a way to have code automatically run after selecting an item in the data validation dropdown list in column C.
Example; I click on C24 and make a selection. I what it to trigger code that would move me to D24 and open up the data validation list in D24. After the selection in D24 I would like it to move me back and down 1 row to C25. I have not found anything directly related to this but I have found that code can be run after a selection in a valadition list.
Using VBA, I need to Select A1:C14.
The problem is that A1:C14 contains blank cells, and there is also an adjacent column D that I do not want to copy.
So, UsedRegion and CurrentRegion aren't doing it for me. (It selects Column D too.)
Obviously, this is an example...the real data set is an export and varies in size.
How would i go about selecting a row to the left of any active cell. As far as column B

So when i click on delete button it delete the first row which has the same data that entered by the user.
for example, user wants to see all data the belong to the user "Tim", the forms will show all data related to the use Tim... but i want to delete the selected row not the first row with the name of Tim!

I have a spreadsheet of expenditure, with a column for a category of what was purchased, and then the amounts in the next column, arranged chronologically. eg
01/02/08 food 20.68
06/02/08 petrol 44.65
07/02/08 food 117.65
etc, with various oither columns for week nos (for averages), comments and the like.
Now I would like to do some analysis, for example the mean weekly food spend. I think this should involve checking the category column for "food", and if found, adding the adjacent cell (containing the amount spent) to the sum (and then obviously dividing by number of weeks) - but i cant work out how to do this!
I'm trying to create a formula that searches through a row and selects certain values. I have a list of individuals in rows followed by their 18 scores in columns. What I'm trying to do is only select the best 8 of those scores and add them together. I tried a few things but this is a little over my head.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI need to select the whole column ABOVE the active cell. Ctrl-Shift-UpArrow is no good because it stops at the first blank cell. And selecting the whole column is no good either because when I subsequently paste into the column, it pastes in all the empty cells of the column, meaning my worksheets expands from a few hundred rows to 1 million!
Shift-Home does what I want on rows. Is there an equivalent for columns?

I have two option buttons on each of five spreadsheets in my Excel workbook. Selecting the first option button enables an x to be written to a cell when that cell is clicked with the mouse. Selecting the second option button disables the writing of the x when the cell is clicked with the mouse. I have these working quite well.
My problem is that I want the second option button selected (disable writing of x) when I enter the sheet. I'm pretty certain that I need the code in Sub Worksheet_Activate() but I haven't been able to find the VBA statement to set the second option button on.
Also, unlike having the option buttons on a form, when I select the option button on the spreadsheet in Design mode I can see no property sheet indicating the name, value, etc of the option button.

Select Ctrl, Shift and Up Arrow so that C1:D192 are selected
Select Shift and Down Arrow so that C2:D192 are selected

The basic code works great as long as the names are on the primary worksheet. When I try to point the code to a different worksheet, the result displayed in the MSGBOX is null. I did this by putting "Worksheets(Sheet2)." in front of "Columns("B")." I double checked the sheet name.
