Default three data validation tables related to each other

Biff, I am also trying to do what CloudDoctor and Susan were doing. Can you
make the link available again? Thanks so much!

To see the event macro select Sheet1. Right click the sheet tab and select
View code.

Biff - that would be really useful, thanks

Both of those links have expired.

I still have the one sample file that uses an event macro to clear the
drop
down cells when a change is made. Do you want to see that one? Let me
know
and I'll post a fresh link.

Hi Biff,

I'm trying to do exactly (I think) the same as Susan - but the link to
your
sample worksheet won't work... has it moved? I'd really like to see it
to
solve my problem!

Thanks

It would be easier to show you through a sample file than try to

in writing!

Sample file:

I've also used conditional formatting to "clear" the dependent cells
when
a
new unrelated selection is made.

I want to be able to relate the tables to the one previous to it.
If 'James' is picked from CLIENTS, I would like only 'James Job 1'
and
'James Job 2' to be shown from JOBS.
If 'James Job 2 'is picked, then only 'James Job 2 Function 1' and
'James
Job 2 Function 2' and 'James Job 2 Function 3' to be shown from
FUNCTION.

I have tried the INDIRECT function and made it work with 2 tables,
but
can
not seem to make it work with 3 tables.

eg:
CLIENTS
James
Arthur

JOBS
James Job 1
James Job 2
Arthur Job 1
Arthur Job 2

FUNCTION
James Job 1 Function 1
James Job 1 Function 2
James Job 1 Function 3
James Job 2 Function 1
James Job 2 Function 2
James Job 2 Function 3
Arthur Job 1 Function 1
Arthur Job 1 Function 2
Arthur Job 1 Function 3
Arthur Job 2 Function 1
Arthur Job 2 Function 2
Arthur Job 2 Function 3
