Conditional Validation
 

I've made a team management sheet for a game. In one cell I have a
validation for the team names. In another cell I would like to have
conditional validation, i.e., when you choose a team name, a list of
available players is there for selection.

Someone said, on another forum, that they had combined IF statements
with Validation, but did not say how....

Help?

What you need is dependent validation lists.

See Debra Dalgleish's site for instructions.

Thanks to all for the last help; the page took a moderate amount of
figuring out, but the team manager sheet works nicely now.

Naturally, not being able to leave well enough alone, I'd like to
compile stats for the team vs other teams. How do I get excel to look
up multiple instances of a value (opposing team) and return the sum of
the numbers from a column, i.e., you play a particular team 3 different
times in a season and not back to back (unsorted data) how do you pick
out the total (sum) number of touchdowns/whatever that you scored
against them from a table?

Thanks so much for the help,

Mojo
