    Filtered drop down list based on another cell value

    Hello,
    Is there a way to have the drop down list on I5 based on name range 'NumberList" with formula OFFSET(Sheet1!$A$1,1,,COUNTA(Sheet1!$A$1:$A$999)-1,1)
    in the attached file to show only items with the value on E =0 ?

    Create "Not Delivered" list

    in J1

    =IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$A$8,AGGREGATE(15,6,ROW($A$2:$A$8)-1/($E$2:$E$8=""),ROWS($1:1))),"")

    Copy down

    Change "Numberlist" to reference the above

    =OFFSET(Sheet1!$J$1,0,,COUNTA(Sheet1!$J$1:$J$994)-1,1)

    Re: Filtered drop down list based on another cell value

    John,
    I ran into a problem here.
    I am trying to place the formula you provided into the real spreadsheet, but I can not make it to work.

    The parameters changed a little in the real spreadsheet. The place to look for empty is I instead E and I am placing your formula on Column AD.

    Unfortunately I get blank cells when I do so.
    Please help.
    Attached is the real spreadsheet.

    Re: Filtered drop down list based on another cell value

    =IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$A$50,AGGREGATE(15,6,ROW($A$2:$A$50)-1/($I$2:$I$50=0),ROWS($1:2))),"")

    Original file had blanks not zero

    Re: Filtered drop down list based on another cell value

    John,
    Everything is working great with the code, but I have another question.
    Is there a way to skip duplicate entries?

    For example:

    If Item 123456 is entered twice by mistake on column a can it be skipped on the formula to only show one?

    Re: Filtered drop down list based on another cell value

    I was going to suggest setting up another column, say AD, with a formula like =IF(COUNTIFS(A$2:A2,A2)>1,"",A2) so that duplicate values would not be shown.
    The index formula could then be modified to read: =IFERROR(INDEX($AD$2:$AD$50,AGGREGATE(15,6,ROW($A$2:$A$50)-1/($I$2:$I$50=0),ROWS($1:2))),"")
    But it occurs to me that the first instance of the duplicated number might correspond to a value of 1 in column I while the second, which would not be shown, corresponds to zero.
    It might be better to apply conditional formatting to column A that highlights duplicates so that mistakes can be corrected.
    Let us know if you have any questions.
