Can anyone help with my little problem.
I need to find out how to add drop down lists to individual cells. If you can picture this example...... I have a list with 10 items....in any given cell I would like a control box a down arrow to select from this list of items....but....I would also like to drag this box/list down into other cells when new names are added to a main list. If this makes sense....all help will be accepted with many thanks. If it doesnt make sense....sorry. |
