data validation lists
Hi,
I am trying to create a list of responses that would be displayed to a user via a drop down list and when a response is selected only a short version (eg 3 letter code) would be displayed in that cell. My initial thought we Create a list called CODE eg CAR CArdiovascular DEV Developmental DSY Downs syndrome EYE Eye Nystagmus GAS Gastrointestinal I was hoping that I would be able to use Data Validation option with some formula in the list option, eg =left(CODE,3). But this does not work :( Any ideas? |
