    Excellent tutorial. 17 minutes in and with that Offset and Counta formula I was extremely confused for some reason, but I finally managed to recreate what you did.
    Thank you so much for this. Pure gold. People actually pay good cash to learn such stuff. Instant sub.

    Hi,

    My name is Joel and I’ll start off by saying thank you for all of your help this far. I’ve watched your video tutorials, but I had questions and needed help. I hope this catches your interest and you can help me. I know that everyone is busy with their own stuff and if you can’t help me I understand.

    So I’ll start off by describing what I would like to do, much like what you did in some of your tutorials except I don’t know how to apply it to my workbook.
    I have a main page that needs to pull data from different sheets, 220 or so. The way it works is as follows; you select your SPEC from the data validation cell, after that the CATEGORY within that SPEC, then your CHOICES should show.
    I’ve gotten this to work up to the category part. I am stuck on making the “CHOICES Data Validation” part, how to make the choices show since they are in different sheets.

    That’s my most important part I need to figure out. I’ve only populated the first 46 sheets as I didn’t know if this format will even work.
    My second problem is that is that I have been extracting the data from other workbooks by creating a formula in each and every single one then copying and pasting it in their designated spec sheet. Which by the way takes for ever as I have only done 46 of 220 of them. There’s got to be an easier way to do this if not I’ll just keep copying and pasting. I am an excel beginner.

    I would greatly appreciate your help on this and again thanks for all of help this far your tutorials are amazing.

    Bravo

    Excellent tutorial. An enhancment for users would be to add an entry in a dropdown which is actually not included in the data-tables. The system should ask whether to add the new entry or cancel.
    Would be hapy to get a feedback from anyone that has a solution for above issue.

    Excellent tutorial even 3 years later. The one addition I would have liked to see is error correction for the dependent drop down section. If Regions and Country are currently selected and the Region is changed, the Country remains the previous selection. This results in a selected Country not matching the Region. Needs to have something like an OnChange set to "" on that Countries cell.

  • @seiferflo24
    @seiferflo24 3 года назад +2

    First time I follow such a well explained tutorial on Excel. I appreciate the fact you're showing different ways of doing the same thing and that you keep adding to it, really understanding each feature.
    However, I have an issue with the dynamic dropdown list (using offset or not). You're saying at 5:30 that if you rename an item in the "list" it gets updated on the first "sheet". This is only half-true because if you've already selected an item for your sheet, ket's say in your example projet A has "Purchasing" selected, and you modify the name in the list to "Purchase", then your sheet won't show the update... It will get stuck to Purchasing on projet A because it was already selected.
    In my case, this is what's happening, so it's pretty annoying as there is only a link to the cell but not it's content, so I have to make sure my list never changes in terms of terminology. Any idea please? Thx for your help

  • @fragilelove

    Thanks for this informative video on the Filter Function but I've been struggling for weeks trying to implement it in my example. I have multiple dependent drop down lists and the list data is in a separate sheet, how to I then reference the second dependent drop down if the drop down is in another sheet and multiple rows? Do I reference it when I create a unique list in the filter function or do I do it in the validation? Any help would be much appreciated folks as it has been driving me crazy for weeks now hehehe

  • @markmcpeake715

    Good Stuff! 🙂
    My only concern is that the coloring using "Conditional Formatting" on by the "Team Members" list
    and the "Assigned To" list don't seem to be connected; therefore, they could be out of synch.
    I suppose you could use VBA to remedy this (maybe -- need to think about it), otherwise I don't see the usefulness of have the color coding in both places
    Although
    I do like it on the "Task Assignment" list...
    Thoughts?

    Hello sir,
    It's awesome too... in the searchable drop down, if I want to search with 1st letter then 2nd, 3rd so on of the name, then what to do?? example:
    name list as
    Tina
    Jack
    Leila
    Jay
    Adrija
    now as u can see the Jack and Jay both are starting with "Ja" but the Adrija name is having "Ja " at the end. in this case, if I type only "Ja"... then the list should search only alphabetically and should show those 2 names, Jack and Jay... not Adrija...
    Is it possible sir?? I am using older version
