...
I have a cell (in column A) that may either contain a value of "1", "2" or
"3". These values are contained in a validation list and appear in a
drop-down box when clicking on the cell. I want the selection of the
specific
value for the cell in column A to trigger a second drop down list for
column
B. I.e. If the user clicks on the cell in column A and selects value "2"
from
the drop down list, then the moment that "2" is input into that cell, a
second drop down menu appears in the adjacent cell in column B, containing
the options "A", "B" or "C" for the user to choose from, alternatively if
the
user selected "3" as the value for the cell in column A, then the drop
down
box for the cell in column B will contain the options of "D", "E" or "F",
and
so on. Isthis possible?
