In Office 2007, I want to create a named range on one tab and use it as the
list in data validation in another tab. Imagine the following: 1) one work book with 2 tabs. 2) Tab1 and Tab2 are the respectively named tabs. 3) In Tab2 I have the data range and in Tab1 I want to create a drop down box which will display the values in the data range. 4) In Tab2 the data range is in, say B2:B20. At any stage, I could add more data below B20 and I want that those values are also thereafter provided as options in the dropdown box. 5) Finally let us say I want this dropdown box in Tab1 in Cell D6. This is how I do: a) I create a named range using the Excel 2003 sequence of Alt-I/N/D. In the range I enter the formula: =INDIRECT(CONCATENATE("'Tab2"!$B2:$B",COUNTA($B$2: $B$1001)+2)) b) THIS DOES NOT WORK IN OFFICE 2007 WHILE IT WORKED IN OFFICE 2003!! Can someone explain where I am going wrong? Any add-in I need to install? Thanks Uttam |
