Default populating a dropdown based on choice from a previous dropdown


All,

This is for a single worksheet within a single workbook. The worksheet
needs to have 2 dropdown boxes.

I want users to select themselves from dropdown box #1.

I want to populate the list of choices within dropdown box #2 based on
who is signed in.

I am sure VBA will be required, but probably not too daunting. I just
can't get it. Thanks in advance.

Conor

I downloaded the file given in this location and on opening this is OK

if I use the DV Example sheet and change the value in the first dropdown, it
gives me an error

Run time error '1004':
"Method 'Range' of object'_Worksheet' failed

Please help
Thanks
