Default Using Autofilter


For simplicity lets say I have a list of products on sheet 2 and on
sheet 1 I want to have a filtered pull down list in a cell that will
list these individual products from sheet 2. How do I do that?

Thanks,

Ed

This can be done using Data Validation on the cell on sheet1. Give the
list on sheet2 a RangeName, like MyProductList and use it as the list source
in the Data Validation process.......like, =MyProductList

Post back if you have trouble, and someone will help.....

Highlight the cells in your list on Sheet2, then do INsert Name Define
and type MyProductList in the small window and click OK.

Then go to the cell on Sheet1 where you want the drop-down and left-click
Data Validation Allow: List and in the Source: box, type =MyProductList
OK


Now when you select that cell on Sheet1, a small arrow will pop-up at the
right end of it and clicking on the arrow will display the drop down
list......select one of the items and it will be placed in that cell.........
