drop downs
Hi,
I would like to create a list of drop downs in the first column of an excel spreadsheet. I would like input a list for the drop downs and also have the icon for the drop down visible in each and every cell. Thanks.... -- MickM |

drop downs
Hi Mick
Look at DataValidation. In an unused column enter the list of data to be shown in your drop down field. Select the cells where the drop down list shall appear. Goto Data Validation Allow : List Source : select the list entered above OK Regards, Per "Mick" skrev i meddelelsen ...

drop downs
You can create the dropdowns with DataValidationList.
The dropdown arrow will only be visible when you select a cell. Quoted from Debra Dalgleish's site................................. Only the active cell on a worksheet will display a data validation dropdown arrow. To mark cells that contain data validation lists, you can colour the cells, or add a comment. If you require visible arrows for all cells that contain lists, you can use combo boxes instead of data validation, and those arrows will be visible at all times. To create a combo box, choose View|Toolbars, and select either the Control Toolbox or the Forms toolbar. End quote.......................................
