    You get better help on your question if you add a small excel file, without confidential information.

    Please also add manualy the expected result in your file.

    To Attach a File:

    1. Scroll down to the window below your post Additional Options
    2. In the frame Attach Files you will see the button Manage Attachments
    3. Click the button.
    4. A new window will open titled Manage Attachments - Excel Forum.
    5. Click the Browse... button to locate your file for uploading.
    6. This will open a new window File Upload.
    7. Once you have located the file to upload click the Open button. This window will close.
    8. You are now back in the Manage Attachments - Excel Forum window.
    9. Click the Upload button and wait until the file has uploaded.
    10. Close the window and then click Submit.
    Notice my main language is not English.

    I appreciate it, if you reply on my solution.

    Why not add the columns below each other? (manual).

    After that you can use a the datavalidation for G3:g10

    The list will change from time to time, its hard to put a time scale, it could change 5 times in a week and then not again for 2 weeks
