Is there anyway to put a dropdown list in a formula? Have it self populate in
a cell? I am trying to have it so you can choose a number in a drop down list, in the next cell it generates the next drop down list, and continuing for four cells.... I have 33 values which is much to large for the simple formulas. Also, once this information is imputted, can it generate on another worksheet in the workbook? For example, you Choose Building A, and the information you place the cells generates on Building A's worksheet? Sorry this is so complicated, but I am just trying to make this program as easy to use as possible. Any advice is appreciated! |

Hello there.
Indeed AliCat86, that is hugely complicated and more then likely your going to have to build that yourself or hire someone local to do that for you. From what I've read and from what I know about Excel, you cannot actually put a drop down list INTO a formula, but you can put a drop down listbox OVER the cell that contains your formula, use links (ie: = $A$5 for example) that can all be refered to a "Master" list area, and THAT information be retrieved from a Listbox Cell Link. (From the control options area) Well, that's about as much information as I can get for you at the moment, hope that helps! -Imonit On Jun 6, 12:01*pm, Ali Cat86 wrote: Is there anyway to put a dropdown list in a formula?
