    Pull Down Menu

    Hi .. How can I make the list of the Pull Down Menu from a column of a different sheet? Once I added a new row from the sheet and it will automatically show in the Pull Down Menu. Thanks.

    Re: Pull Down Menu

    Create the list using a "Dynamic Named Range".

    For example if your list of data was on Sheet2 starting in cell A1 the formula for the named range would be:
    =Sheet2!$A$1:INDEX(Sheet2!$A:$A,COUNTA(Sheet2!$A:$A))

    Then set up the data validation using this named range and it will expand/contract as you add/remove values from the list.

    Data validation in the attached is set up on the yellow cells on Sheet1. List is stored on Sheet2. Press Ctrl+F3 to bring up the name manager box to see the formula.

    Hope that's of help.
