Automatically enter cell text
Hi Please help! I have a long list which i have named in one worksheet. In
another sheet i refer to that list by applying data validation, so if you click the cell it brings a dropdown arrow and you can select a name from the list. My question is i want it to automatically enter the code for that name when selecting it from the dropdown in the next cell. Please help! |
