Combo Box dropdown data
Hi everyone,
I am back with a question I asked earlier and didnt receive a response. Perhaps I didnt explain myself well enough. I will try again. I have 3 spreadsheets in the one workbook. Sheet one has my Forms-Combo Box/dropdowns in it. (I prefer to use these as I have a number of others throughout the sheet with quite large VBE data attached to them and rather than rewrite everything I chose to use the Forms-Combo Box to keep everything uniform.) Anyway, sheet 2 has my lists in it for the combo boxes and sheet 3 is my data capture sheet. Sheet 1 Combo box gets list from sheet 2. Combo box is attached to cell C5 in sheet 1. Sheet 2 has my list going from B1:B15 Sheet 3 I want the cell A1 (sheet3) to pick up the data from cell C5 (sheet1). I can get a1(sheet3) to recognise the cell C5(sheet1) but it puts the number of the cell from sheet2 instead of the text, eg In my combo box/dropdown on sheet 1 I chose Apple which in my list on sheet 2 would be B4. Instead of showing Apple in Sheet3 A1 it puts the number 4. I am wanting to capture all the data on a separate sheet in each survey as this will be going to a large number of people and it will make collating the data in a master sheet much easier. BTW I am using Excel 2003. I hope this makes better sense and someone will be able to help me. Cheers Lynda |
