I asked this question before Christmas but never managed to fully resolve it
(or find a good workaround), so I'll ask now and try to be clearer about it this time. Basically I have one dynamic named range* named Choice, and then several dynamic ranges named List1, List2, List3 etc... In my sheet, I want to use Data Validation to ask the user to select a value from a drop-down list containing the values in range Choice, and then, if the user has chosen the seventh choice in range Choice, I want to the user to select a value from a drop-down list in a neighboring cell containing the values in range List7. So, in Cell A1 (for example) I want to pick from any choice in range Choice through using Data Validation; in Cell A2 I want to have the data validation reflect the choice made in A1. The first part works fine, but I can't think of a way to get the second part working. I've learned that if I'm not using dynamic ranges I can use =INDIRECT() in the data validation to solve this, but I haven't made it work with a dynamic range. Please help me if you can fix this, or if you can think of a smart workaround. Thanks! * Using the formula =OFFSET($K$2;0;0;MATCH("*";$K:$K;-1)-1;1) in a name |
