When you said "Spoiler Alert" that's the moment you nailed the pin down. You've totally upped your game with the thumbnails, the audio the video it's just so much improvement from the past year! Love the way you listen to small people's advice! I would just be grateful for a cookie though!
Finally, I found video which really help me. I stuck in spills error many days. this is very clear, very useful for my over hundred lists of raw materials for kitchen. Thank you so much Kevin.
Thanks for this video Kevin, I have followed the steps from the spreadsheet you have given. Now I learnt how to insert Searchable Drop-Down List in MS-Excel.
You don’t even know how much you helped me, I was going nuts because I had to apply the formula on many cells… This was really really helpful, thank you very much. 😭❤️
Hi kevin , instead of going for a transpose and hiding the columns of the validated list, I recommend you could use the function "cell('contents")" as the search criteria for the search function initially (instead of "A6" in you formula) so that you can use the same formula on all rows and search gets modified based on what you type in the cell.
@@jasirmanakkamburath9685 instead of referring to A6, you can type "=cells(contents )"...so change made anywhere will be reflected in the formula, thus we can do away with transpose to hide columns that does not show our required data...
I've been lately seeing that you are working on your cookies! It was first back then an example and now it's real! We asked you delivered! And yes, when I will order a cookie as soon as possible, just can't wait to taste!!!
Love it! ❤️ Hopefully Microsoft is able implement the searchable drop-down on desktop app soon so we no longer need to do this workaround and so it would be easier as well for those who are not Office 365 subscribers.
Thanks for the trick, Kevin, very useful. I actually didn't know that excel online was able to filter automatically. I use to set another trick though, combining OFFSET, MATCH and COUNTIF. Basically, if the table of cookies is named "cookies", and you are typing in B6, then the formula of the dropdown list can be set as : =OFFSET(cookies,MATCH(B6&"*",cookies,0)-1,,COUNTIF(cookies,B6&"*"))
I tried renaming the table, but it wouldn't accept your formula because that name is already in use. I then tried to change your formula above to match the correct table name 'cookiestypes' (yes, that's exactly how it's spelled). Still couldn't get it to work. I then tried to use your formula in the Data Validation - List dialog box. Still no luck. Would LOVE clarification because I couldn't make sense of the TRANSPOSE option and feel like your formula would be simpler. Thanks in advance!
WOW Sir!!!! I am glad to know Someone like you who uses their talent from working at Microsoft to help others master their work!!! This will really help in attendance lists and more. Keep up your hard work. You are the best!!🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@KevinStratvert Kevin, I love your videos about Drop Down Lists...Do you know of a way to include an "alias", "AKA", or "keyword" into the search? For instance, what if you wanted people to find Vegan cookies or Peanut free cookies but didn't want to include those words in the cookie name? THANK YOU!
What do you think about a giveaway of cookies? 😂😂😂 We should create the best cookie order drop down lists, and Kevin will decide which one is the best 😂😂😂 Best Excel tutorial! Thank you so much for help💪
Hi, Kevin. This is Samiullah Ehsan from Pakistan. Your videos are ever helpful. Your How-To videos have helped me with my Excel use. I am currently taking a Data analysis course and lately completed a Business Analysis course. I would humbly request you to make a playlist "Business Analysis and Excel", wherein you teach How-To use Excel as a Business Analyst to quantify the business as a number(defining and evaluating business as a metric, as a KPI) and How-To analyse these metrics as business measurements over time (understanding root cause of changes in metrics, building and analysing dashboards and reports, using planar line chart in excel for analytics, predictive analysis, statistical analysis, regression etc) and other important uses of excel that a business analyst should know. Kindly, do make it. Again, it is a humble plea, kindly, do consider it.
For sure I'd buy cookies from Kevin Cookie Company! and Thank you so much for this video. I'm creating a form to help my husband with his job. It will be his Christmas gift. Happy Life Kevin!
Superb! Thanks for addressing the desktop solution. I do a lot of work for my Volunteer Fire Dept., but we are rural with spotty internet (so online solutions seldom work for us). This will help me develop some Excel data entry forms for inventory, equipment checks, vehicle maintenance, and incident reporting.
Thank you. Document finally working. I do have one question though, what do you do to add a row to the data validation drop down list and have the table source (with formulas) update?
Thank you sir, this is way faster than building a pop-up box with a macro. Do you have save me a ton of time, as I’ve attached this search list to an existing table where the search validation items are the named range. This works perfectly and without macros, which is what I was hoping to find and utilize.
All they have to do is add a checkbox offering "Show Valid Results" or something like that right under the checkbox offering an in-cell drop down. You'd think it would've been added like 5 versions ago.
This is a great method if you are not legacy sharing the workbook. This won't work if the workbook is legacy shared. A good reason for legacy sharing is that it is easier to allow everyone access to the workbook. You don't have to send any link nor do you have to setup specific people. Setting up specific people is a pain when there are a large number of people. Just my two cents worth.
Hi Kevin, Nice job, I Like it!! First I'm on Win 10 , Microsoft 365, and my system is fully updated, with I7 Processor, and high-end graphics card, and 16GB!. power user from corporate with a background. I think you have an error in both examples I have rechecked all code 4 times -no errors! In both examples as long as you advance down with your searches, ALL is WELL! But if you try to back up the list with a search it falls, by only finding 1 or staying lock a the last search input. Might waant to take a look? Thanks, keep up the great work!! Rod

By far, the best example of a searchable drop down! Everyone I have seen so far does just one cell, THIS is what most probably needed! Thank you

hi sunil, can you please explain how can i apply cell function instead of transpose??

@@chandrusunil Clarification please? Perhaps provide the complete suggested formula and where it would be entered. Thanks in advance!
@@Sparqcorporatetrainingin the search function of the "isnumber" column you can change the cell reference from A6 to =cell(contents)

I have a Excel class now and I needed this video thanks for uploading this video Kevin!
I’ve been looking for something like this for a while now. Thank you!
Kevin saved my day, this is the best video I found for a searchable drop down list

I wouldn't hold your breath.

Seems like I'm being punished with this long winded complicated way just because I pay for the subscription????? Makes no sense!
Thank you. I already knew all of it except for the transpose. That is amazing. I just didn't know about transpose. Thanks again.
Been searching for the multiple rows with sreachble dropdows for over 3 montnhs now. This is great! Than you so much
Great video. The only drawback with the solution is, that you can't type while pull-down is open, and see the irrelevant options disappear 😁
You are my best online teacher, Kevin Your videos help me a lot
Thank you!

Hi Kevin I'm using excel 2019 which doesn't have the filter function, do you have a solution to use alternative function to achieve the same result?
Thanks Kevin! great video! How can I apply this searchable dropdown to multiple rows? Could you make a video about it?
Excellent video Kevin!
Thank you 😊 Kevin you're my Official "goto" for answers on Excel. Van you please make a video tutorial on Microsoft SQLite please.
