Hi Saltz,
Let me give you an example of how to do this.
Column A
Fruits
Vegetables
Column B
Apples
Bananas
Column C
Cucumber
Raddish
We will create two dropwdownlists (DDL) with this data.
When Fruits is selected from the first DDL the second DDL will give the option to select Apples and Bananas.
When Vegetables is selected, Cucumber and Raddish becomes available in second DDL.
1. Named ranges
Select Fruits and Vegetables and notice the white bar to the left of the formulabar. If your selected range is A1 and A2 then it will display A1. Click this field and enter the text "Main".
Repeat this for column B: "Fruits" and Column C: "Vegetables"
2. Creating DDL's
Select the cell you want to create the DDL (Let's say A10). Goto data validation, choose list and enter "=Main".
Select the cell you want to create the second DDL. Goto data validation, choose list and enter "=INDIRECT(A10)".
Best regards,
Trowa
