I am trying to do cascading drop-down lists in excel so that when I
select
my
choice from my first list, only information pertaining to that choice
shows
up in the second drop down list. Example: selecting a type of wood
for a
floor in a first drop-down list one expects only the colors available
for
the
type of wood selected to show in the second drop-down list not all the
colors
of all the types of wood.

The problem I am having is that I have more than 8 primary and
secondary
lists and am not able to do my =if() function in the 'source' area of
the
data/validation. I've read about using index/match formulas or by
using a
UDF but am unsure as how to do either of these... a little help?
