    =Hyperlink & Address Match formula

    I want to have a hyperlink in B2, when I click on it, it should show me the units of that projectnumber in A2. All the units numbers with corresponding projects are in sheet DATA Units.
    But I want it just to show the units that have an "N" in column M of DATA Units. (so it should show me 5 units, just like my formula shows), is that possible? Thanks! (I made a pivot too, maybe its needed, maybe not) I tried something like this: =HYPERLINK("#DATA Units!" & ADDRESS(MATCH(A2, DATA UNITS!A:$A, 0), 1), "Link"),

    Thanks!

    I think Hyperlink is the wrong function. Popup lists are created with data validation.

    I've applied a dynamic DV to your column B that will lookup the value in column A on the UNITS and display the same number of rows from column B starting at that row that is the result of the monster formula in column B. Be careful when you click on the drop down arrows in column B, if you accidentally SELECT one of those, it will enter that value and remove your formula. CTRL-Z if you do that.

    Yes, it works but could u link your data validation with that sheet DATA Units (where it should show the unitnumbers with a 'N' (column M) only instead of the pivot? Thanks! fert.xlsm

    No, that data isn't organized in a way to create those adjacent ranges. Perhaps a new pivot to get the data you want organized like on the UNITS page.

    Yeah I organized the pivot and doesn't seem to affect the data validation (just added a new criteria in the pivot, N or not.) and seems to go along. Ill try to have the pivot constantly updated somehow.. thanks for ur input. +Rep
