Data Validation Formulas
I have a main worksheet with a Data Validation Drop Down List. There is
another worksheet where I have the list/s of information, I have called INFO1. Let's say the first cell in the main sheet is K7. The data on the INFO1 worksheet is in the following format: A B 1 Red R 2 Green G 3 Blue B 4 Purple P When I click on K7, I get the drop down list of A1 thru A4, and making a selection returns the value in column A I clicked on. What I want to happen is when I click on a cell in column A it will then return the value in column B only in cell K7. i.e. click A2 returns G in cell K7. Hope I have asked this correctly. thanks for the help......... Bill |

You need an event sub for that:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) Worksheets("main").Range("K7") = Cells(Target.Row, Target.Column + 1) End Sub Post if you need help to install it!

Stefi - Thanks for your reply. I'm very new to this, and am sorry to say I
do not know what an event sub is or how to use/post/install. Would appreciate any and all help you may give to a new guy. This one I cannot figure out.
