Drop Downs, Index Match or what?
the materials and diameters are adapted except all GRPSN materials because I don't get them sorted. You have to add another character or number to the data table that the different values can be recognized. Regards Claus B. Looking very nice. I'll get after finishing it now that I have some solid and proper code to look as example. But how will you Excel or VBA tell what is str25GRPSN300 or str50GRPSN300. I guess you have to change the values for that material into the data table. So I need to go to the worksheet list and do something like: For the 300 Dia. GRP SN 2500 STIS-30 GRP SN 2500 STIS-30 For the 350 Dia. GRP SN 2500 STIS-35 GRP SN 2500 STIS-35 And so on. Thanks for the additional direction. Howard |

GRP SN 2500 STIS-30 GRP SN 2500 STIS-30 you have e.g. str25GRPSN350 str50GRPSN350 str10GRPSN350 so you have to add 25, 50 and 10 to the diamters 300, 350, 400, 450 and 500 All not needed strings in declaration part can be deleted.

Regards Claus B. -- Win XP PRof SP2 / Vista Ultimate SP2 Office 2003 SP2 /2007 Ultimate SP2 Hi Claus, I have made some progress, got all materials to work to a degree, including the pesky GRP SN 2500 STIS GRP SN 5000 STIS GRP SN 10000 STIS I was checking accuracy of the returns starting with cell A1 and selected uPVC and 50 in the drop down in B1 and C1 only displays Class 6 and Class 9. It should offer Class 4 Class 6 Class 9 Class 12 Class 16 for uPVC and 50. I tried other drop col A downs for no apparent reason to see if there was any differences and bing out of the blue I start getting an error message in the Select Case - No select case with end case or such and the End Sum is blue highlighted. I parsed it to the best of my knowledge and cannot find a reason for the error message or why all the classes are not displayed in the C1 drop down. I am un sure which strings can be deleted as you mention here. All not needed strings in declaration part can be deleted. Here is a link, if you care to take a look. https://www.dropbox.com/s/92isw0vozs...rop%20Box.xlsm Thanks. Howard |

Now that I have the concept down for the most part, I'm building a workbook one Material at a time, starting with uPVC. I just entered a1 to axxx for values, darned if all is well until I get to uPVC - 335 - Class 4 thru 16.. Should return a86-90 but I get #N/A for all 335. Index formula covers down to row 112 (for now) and 335 is row 87. I've been staring at it for 20 minutes. All numbers of uPVC before 335 are accurately returned. Hopefully it will dawn on me what's happening. Howard |

I have corrected it in Skydrive. The string as well as the Select case statement. The formula is now working Regards Claus B. I believe this is the version you updated. I have found some error I don't how to fix. First I replaced all the return value to values like this: uPVC-50-Class 4 Which will match what is in the drop downs,[Material - Dia - Class] if the return is correct. You can see in A2 mPVC but the return is uPVC. Howard |

What is the reason to do it this way? It is much easier to create a DV with the products and split it to material, diameter and class. Regards Claus B. Well, mostly I was responding to a post and it seemed easily enough solved by a couple of drop downs, the second drop down choices dependent on what was chosen in the first. Then it was, okay now that I have those two choices, the third drop down must depend on those choices. I found examples of ways to do that but also found it very difficult to follow the site instructions on how to make that work. So when I posted here looking for some perhaps simpler method, I just went along with what was offered. When I got an example work book I knew I was in over my head from the vast amounts of combinations that I was dealing with. I try to stay within my skill level in my responses, mostly only needing an occasional kick in the pants here or there to get me by. But every once in a while they evolve to what seems to be a monster to me. This one was way more than I could handle as you can see by all the help I needed. I would be interested in the method you mention of creating a DV w/ the products and split it to mat., dia., and class. I fear the one you just finished for me will be almost impossible for the end use to maintain if materials and diameters change very much. Howard |

Then you get in column B all the product with this material and choosing a product will be splitted to material, diameter and class. In HelperSheet you can insert new products or delete a product.

That looks very promising. I'm still finding ghosts in the other method, as I check ALL possible returns for errors. DuctIron with a 400 or 450 dia errors out. I find it hopeless to try to track down what's happening. This new method looks like it would be much easier to maintain, add or delete new and old data to the Helper Sheet. I'll give it a good look over. Thanks Claus. Howard |

Hi Claus, I am attempting to add an additional Material to the sheet and code. So far I've added "Steel" to the drop down list. I have added Steel, Dia., Class and ID to the Helper Sheet (all phony data for testing) I have extended the Index formula range to row 530. Every line in the code that I have added to try to make "Steel" work, is followed by '// so you can see where I have made the additions.
