Use The Dropdown List To Move To The Next Level?
Jan 23, 2013
I have a sheet on the left is a list of document names, next to the list is a hyperlink to the actual document. On the right is a drop down list.
The list contains:
Started
In Progress
Complete
I want each person to be able to use the dropdown list to move to the next level but not be able to go backwards.
Example of how it would work:
A person would click the link to the document and set the status to Started in the drop down.They would read half the document and set the list to In progress. However they would not be able to go back to Started or a blank cell once they have set it to In Progress. The same applies to the next level, if they set it to Complete, they cannot change it to anything. Perhaps before "locking" it as Complete there could be a message box warning that the action is not reversible and giving the option to leave it as In Progress.

I'm trying to move my VBA programming to the next level and use more efficient code.
I'm wondering if there is a faster way to run the loop below, perhaps removing the 'For c = 2 to LastRow' as it seems a little clunky to me.
For c = 2 to LastRow
If Cells(c, Range("Product_Type").Column) = "" Then _
Cells(c, Range("Product_Type").Column).Interior.ColorIndex = 41
Next c
I've seen a similar thing somewhere where it was all done in one statement without the loop.

Where can I obtain some working examples or explanations as to what, where, when, why, and how these Public and Private Sub are correctly implemented? I see these code used extensively but not sure why it's there yet. A macro which uses a Private Sub is in one of my workbooks. Due the "progress" of things from here I now need to move to the next curios level of understanding Macro and VB coding.

I have a large flat hierarchy table. I am looking for a method to select a parent and return a list of my lowest level children. I am somewhat familiar with VBA but I don't know where to begin coding this.
This has been a great learning source over the years, but this is one of the few instances I cannot find my problem so I am now posting. Example below:
Child
Parent
4
5
3
4
2
3
1
5
40
50
30
40
20
30
10
50
22
100
If I select 5, I want values 2 & 1 returned.
If I select 50, I want values 20 & 10 returned.
If I select 100, the value 100 should return.
If I select 40, the value 20 should return.

I have a excel file to keep track of sales pipeline. What I am looking for, is an automated utility or code that will allow excel to automatically move entire rows once a task is completed and can be moved to another sheet. In Prospects sheet I have a column for " Stage" and here you have to select from a drop down menu, either "Prospect", "Contacted" "quoted" "WON" "LOST" What I would like, is that once you have selected one of the sales stage, the entire row or entry, will be automatically moved to the right tab from the "prospects" to a new sheet according to each stage.

i am making a simple complaint tracking system and there is a column where there are two choices Resolved and Unresolved if you choose resolved it copies the row to the resolved sheet and if it's unresolved it copies the row to the unresolved sheet. i attached a template to give you an idea, i want the first complaint to be copied to the resolved sheet and second one to the unresloved sheet, i don't want the status column which contains the choices to be copied to the other sheets, also the unresolved sheet doesn't have a 'date closed' column because the complaint is not yet resolved so i dont want it to be copied there, i want it only in the resolved sheet.

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?
