    Dynamic List for Dropdown box

    Hi,

    I had some help previously with a formula and I am trying to amend it to work on an additional list.

    I have a box and based on that condition I would like a list populated.

    e.g. In cell E24 the user selects the division which populates a number. This number (in cell G4) needs to be used as a lookup. Anything on the sheet "Activity Types by Network" with that code in column A the description needs to be returned to the help sheet.

    The code I am using (doesnt work) is:

    In V2, enter as array formula (Ctrl-Shift-Enter):

    and copy down.
