Conditional Combo Boxes
I have had a request to build an Excel sheet with conditional combo boxes.
As I understand it, there are two combo boxes. If the user selects A in the first once, the choices 1,2 and 3 are available in the second box. If they choose B then 4,5 and 6 are available. I do this in Access all the time, but I have never attempted it in Excel. Is it possible? Disclaimer: This project really belongs in a database environment, but only a handful of people have Access and everyone has Excel. |

Hello PJFry, Have a look at this sight for some ideas about how to use and setup Combo Boxes or Drop Downs as they are sometimes called. http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal13.html Sincerely, Leith Ross |
