    It needs work-arounds. What is the formula that you are using and some
    sample data?

    dependent drop down boxes and dynamic ranges

    hi all,
    have created a drop down box that is dependent on another cell, using
    the indirect function to get the name from another cell.
    heowever, when i amend the names to dynamic ranges, this stops the drop
    down boxes getting their list - anyone got dependent drop down boxes to
    workj with dynamic ranges?
