Excel 2010
I have a range with 9 columns. Of these 9 columns 4 are my concern. They are not all adjacent and I much prefer to NOT change their location with respect to the other column as users are accustomed to the order they appear.
I can apply any named ranges and or VBA to obtain a solution.
I could convert this to an Excel Table. The author prefers I don’t but I can. (It has 3 header rows - arrrgh)
I CANNOT order these in any Ascending or Descending order by ANY of these columns.
Columns of interest and criteria are:
SIZE – I wish to return a list of SIZES that meet the criteria
DIM1 = criteria, numeric known via formula, NOT dependent on user selected TYPE
DIM2 <=criteria, numeric known via formula, NOT dependent on user selected TYPE
TYPE = criteria, User Selected
DIM2 example, criteria known via formula = 27.59, must find a DIM2 Less Than or Equal To 27.59.
The only solution I can come up with is, when the user select the TYPE, use the WorksheetChange Event to loop through the rows of data to build a Data Validation list. This is not my first choice since the user could copy & paste multiple TYPE entries and a Target.Count >1 just opens a whole new can of worms.
The file currently has a dependent drop down; user selects TYPE and then selects SIZE but nothing stops them from selecting a Size which has a Dim1 or Dim 2 not meeting criteria.
TIA
