Hello,

I am interested in creating a status report for a website that I am
working on. I saw an excel spreadsheet that is pretty much exactly
what I am trying to do but I don't know how they created it. I want
the spreadsheet to have an expandable tree format. For instance, I
will list 5 major sections to the website. These sections will be able
to expand when you click on the +. Then under them you will see more
sections broken down with +, listing all the pages that will be on the
site. From that I want to implement a progress dropdown showing the
progress of the site from completion, in progree, not posted, etc.
This will then relate back to a field back up at the 5 main sections
stating the percentage of completion. I can figure out how to do the
whole percentatge stuff, but I dont know how to make the sections
expandable. Does any one know? Am I being clear with my description?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Try taking a look at SubTotals under Data on the main menu. This is the
only native Excel functionality that has this kind of behaviour (without
going into controls that is).

thanks!

i'll check it out...I think what I might do is just use the outline
grouping function. That can fake what Im trying to do and then just do
some formulas for percentages and what not.

Thanks!
