I am trying to set up a data validation list from several Named
Ranges. The named ranges are on a sheet called 'LookupLists' 1st Named Range is called 'PurchasedFrom', which lists Shop1, Shop2, Shop3 (cells K4:K15) 2nd Named Range lists items available at Shop1 (currently cells M4:M10) 3rd Named Range lists items available at Shop2 (currently cells P4:P10) and so on. When selecting a Sheet called 'PurchasedEntry', cell b5, the validation lists Shop1, Shop2, Shop3 (which works great). However, when say Shop1 is chosen, i want the validation list in 'PurchasedEntry', cell c5 to display items available from Shop1 only. I have done this, however, the problem is that the shop contents lists can grow, and i want the validation list range to grow automatically, so i have tried the following validation formula picked up from various web sources:- (which should list the contents of Shop1) =OFFSET(LookupLists!$M$4,0,0,COUNTA(LookupLists!$M :$M)-2,1) Unfortunately, i can't get it to work. Cell c5 shows the pulldown tab, but when clicked, it does not function. Can anybody please help? |
