I have a validation box with yes/no options in it in cell H7.
When "no" is selected I would like to hide columns M and R only. When yes
is selected I would like these columns to be displayed.

In the same worksheet I have a validation in cell H6 but would like columns
P:S hidden if "Total $" is selected from the validation list, columns K:N
hidden if "$/eq T" is selected and columns K:S visible if "Total $ & $/eq T"
is selected.

I need the first validation to work in conjunction with the second so that
for example, if total $ is selected and H7 has "yes" selected, only columns
K:N are visible.

I am working with Excel 2003 and my knowledge of VBA is extremely basic,
extending only to pasting code into a module.

I am very grateful for any help you can give me on this one. Thanks!!

This actually just looks at H7 to see if it's a Yes. If it's a yes, then M and
R are hidden. Anything else and M and R are shown.

If that's ok, rightclick on the worksheet tab that should have this behavior.
Select view code and paste this into the code window:

Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

'one cell at a time!
If Target.Cells.Count 1 Then Exit Sub

If Not (Intersect(Target, Me.Range("H7")) Is Nothing) Then
'in H7
Me.Range("M1,R1").EntireColumn.Hidden _
= CBool(LCase(Target.Value) = LCase("no"))
ElseIf Not (Intersect(Target, Me.Range("H6")) Is Nothing) Then
Me.Range("P:S").EntireColumn.Hidden _
= CBool(LCase(Target.Value) = LCase("total $"))
Me.Range("k:n").EntireColumn.Hidden _
= CBool(LCase(Target.Value) = LCase("$/eq t"))
End If

End Sub

Thanks Dave - it works like a charm except for when "$/eq T" is selected with
H7 = "yes". In this case it also displays column M which needs to be hidden
when $/eq T is selected (all K:N need to be hidden when $/eq T is selected).

I'm not sure I understand the requirements.

You have two cells to inspect (H6 and H7).

There's only a few things that can happen:


H7 H6 What should be hidden/shown
===== ================ =================================================
Yes Total $
Yes $/eq T
Yes Total $ & $/eq t
Yes blank

no Total $
no $/eq T
no Total $ & $/eq t
no blank

blank Total $
blank $/eq T
blank Total $ & $/eq t
blank blank

Please explain what columns should be hidden/shown for each of these 12
conditions.

(I didn't want to guess.)

Dave,

My apologies for not making this a bit clearer. What I have is something
like this...

Cost type: (cell H6) validation list = Total $ & $/eq T, Total $, $/eq T
Variance: (cell H7) validation list = Yes, No

K L M N O P Q R S T
---- Total Cost ---- ---- Unit Cost ----
2007 2008 var 2007 2008 var
34 30 4 26 28 -2
etc

If H6 = "Total $ & $/eq T" and H7 = "Yes", then K:M & P:R need to be
displayed. If H7 = "No" then col M & R need to be hidden. This works fine
using the previous code.
However, if H6 = "$/eq T" and H7 = "Yes" then only P:R should be displayed.
This combination currently displays col M as well which needs to remain
hidden if this combination is selected.
Is there an easy fix to this?

Thanks so much!

The possibilities a

H7 H6 Columns to be hidden / displayed

yes total $ & $/eq T none / all
yes total $ P:R / K:M
yes $/eq T K:M / P:R

no total $ & $/eq T M & R / K:L & P:Q
no total $ M & P:R / K:L
no $/eq T K:M & R / P:Q

The only scenario that the code doesn't do as I need is "yes" + "$/eq T"
because col M remains visible. The rest works great.

If that's ok, rightclick on the worksheet tab that should have this behavior.
Select view code and paste this into the code window:

Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

'one cell at a time!
If Target.Cells.Count 1 Then Exit Sub

If Not (Intersect(Target, Me.Range("H7")) Is Nothing) Then

I need the first validation to work in conjunction with the second so that

K:N are visible.

I am working with Excel 2003 and my knowledge of VBA is extremely basic,
extending only to pasting code into a module.

I am very grateful for any help you can give me on this one. Thanks!!

So you changed the true and false around and it worked ok?

The only scenario that the code doesn't do as I need is "yes" + "$/eq T"
because col M remains visible. The rest works great.

Dave,

My apologies for not making this a bit clearer. What I have is something
like this...

Cost type: (cell H6) validation list = Total $ & $/eq T, Total $, $/eq T
Variance: (cell H7) validation list = Yes, No

K L M N O P Q R S T
---- Total Cost ---- ---- Unit Cost ----
2007 2008 var 2007 2008 var
34 30 4 26 28 -2
etc

If H6 = "Total $ & $/eq T" and H7 = "Yes", then K:M & P:R need to be
displayed. If H7 = "No" then col M & R need to be hidden. This works fine
using the previous code.
However, if H6 = "$/eq T" and H7 = "Yes" then only P:R should be displayed.
This combination currently displays col M as well which needs to remain
hidden if this combination is selected.
Is there an easy fix to this?

Thanks so much!

You have two cells to inspect (H6 and H7).

There's only a few things that can happen:


H7 H6 What should be hidden/shown
===== ================ =================================================
Yes Total $
Yes $/eq T
Yes Total $ & $/eq t
Yes blank

no Total $
no $/eq T
no Total $ & $/eq t
no blank

blank Total $
blank $/eq T
blank Total $ & $/eq t
blank blank

Please explain what columns should be hidden/shown for each of these 12
conditions.

(I didn't want to guess.)
