    Excel Data Selection

    Hey guys i have'nt used excel in a while, and I'm struggling with how to create this formula or whatever i need.

    For Example:

    I have x15 rows of 10 cells that have circuit times in them on a data sheet. My main sheet i want to have a list so i can select one of the 15 runs to show on my main sheet. Sorry if its hard to understand.

    I would appreciate any help

    Re: Excel Data Selection

    make a defined name of your row(names).

    after that you can use a data-validation to select the defined name.

    after that you can use a vlookup formula to show the data.
    Notice my main language is not English.

    I appreciate it, if you reply on my solution.

    If you are satisfied with the solution, please mark the question solved.

    Attaching a sample workbook enables others to work on your problem:

    To attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to make it clear what is needed. Include BEFORE/AFTER sheets if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to open the upload window.

    1. Use [code] code tags [\code]. It keeps posts clean, easy-to-read, and maintains VBA formatting.

    Change the blue cell in E3.

    See the change in the green cells.

    It is made with HLookup.

    See the attached file.
