Point, Click and select from a menu/list...
I am fine with just pointers where to start to look and learn how to do this. In some excel documents I downloaded I have seen point-n-click drop-down-menues. It can be such simple as: [___Yes/No____ ] <- Click, then select options from the list that falls down. [Yes____] (returns TRUE) [No_____] (returns FALSE) Or _[Select_your_fruit]_ <- Click, then select options from the list that falls down. [Orange_______] (returns value = 1) [Apple________] (returns value = 2) [Pinapple______] (returns value = 45) If someone can just tell me what this function is called I will be able to use the web for more info how to do it.
