How to line a DropDwn w/a Named Range?
I,m not entirely sure what you want but if you have named a range yo
can have a dropdown list box by using DATA, VALIDATION, then choos allow list then in the range box type =MC! Don't forget to highlight the range you want the listbox to work o befroe you choose validation. Hope this helps! Simo -- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com |

simon,
in your enthousiasm you're destroying the syntax <g op should NOT type =MC! but =MC or in data/validation/listsource press [f3] go get a list with names keepITcool < email : keepitcool chello nl (with @ and .) < homepage: http://members.chello.nl/keepitcool Simon Lloyd wrote: I,m not entirely sure what you want but if you have named a range you can have a dropdown list box by using DATA, VALIDATION, then choose allow list then in the range box type =MC!

the ! is used when adding name objects to point to the current sheet. but ALWAYS comes BEFORE the name, never AFTER it's also used for relative range references in named formulas worksheets(1).activate names.add "!localName", activecell names.add "globalName", activecell names.add "doubleA", "=!a1*2" names.add "doubleB", "=b1*2" worksheets(2).activate names.add "!localName", activecell names.add "globalName", activecell keepITcool < email : keepitcool chello nl (with @ and .) < homepage: http://members.chello.nl/keepitcool Simon Lloyd wrote: Thanks Keepitcool!

Thanks to all....
I had Data!$A$14:$A$19 Now... I have Data!Action Where Action is the named range. Much more better and cleaner for if and when I have a process to insert into Action I'll have new values for my referring combo box. TIA JeffP..... "Simon Lloyd " wrote in message ...
