Selecting from a list
I want to be able to select from a list based on the contents of
another cell. For example, in A1 I can select the value from a list of 4 options. Cell B1 has a list of 10 options. Depending upon which option I select in A1, I can only select certain options in cell B1. So if I pick option 1 from cell A1, I can pick one option from 5 of the options from the list in B1. If I pick option 2 from cell A1, I can pick one option from a different 5 options from the list in B1. So the contents of the selectable list in B1 is dependant upon the value selected in A1. Can anyone help? |
