I am trying to make a work schedule spreadsheet.
On another spreadsheet that I did not create I saw that you can go to a blank cell and a drop down arrow appears beside the cell which you can click and then you get a list to pick from to fill in the cell with text. Then when you move off the cell the whole thing goes away and you just have the item that you picked from the list showing How do you do this? I am just now learning how to record macros and program VBA so a really basic explanation will be much appreciated. thanks dzierzekr |

This is schieved using Data Validation. Choose it from the menu and set up a
list under "Validation Criteria - Allow List" The entry "Designate valid cell entries" in the help file is useful. "dzierzekr" wrote: I am trying to make a work schedule spreadsheet.
