Default List values based on different values selected

Hi maniarasan,

The answer is easy, but the hard part is the question, could you be more
specific.
Is State: a named range and is that used as data validation in a cell which
you select
And are Type1:, Type2: & Type3: also named ranges which you would like to
have the contents change depending on the selection of State:
Should Type!: etc also form a drop down list in a cell with data
validation.

Could you tell me which cells contain the drop down lists and how you have
(done/want to do) this.

Stick with it we will get there.

Regards
Steve

I think I am starting to understand, as you have access to the news groups
could you try looking in "microsoft.public.excel.programming". I think
that
the thread started by "Michael Hudston" about an hour ago, might answer
your
question.

What exactly do you mean by "selected" where does this selection take
place,
and where should the list then show up.

1.2 2.2 3.2 11.2 12.2 13.2
1.3 2.3 3.3 11.3 12.3 13.3
1.4 2.4 3.4 11.4 12.4
1.5 2.5 3.5 11.5 12.5


Above is the worksheet which i'm trying to solve.
When state "Alaska" is selected, Type 1 should list the values 1.1 -
1.5; Type 2 should list the values 2.1 - 2.5, so on
When State "Arizona" is selected, type 1 should list the values
11.1 -
11.5 and so on


Please help me on this.....- Hide quoted text -

The selection will be made from the dropdown list "State", such that
the values should be listed in type1, type2, type3 as dropdown list
based on state selected.- Hide quoted text -
