    Indirect ListfillRange for Combobox

    Hi,

    I have a form with a few comboboxes. based on the outcome of another combobox. the list ranges are named for example as "AAA_CC" or "BBB_CC" or "CCC_CC"

    first combobox has a linked cell which then feeds another cell to give the list range. I am struggling to get the ComboBox to produce the dynamic list.

    I would prefer not to use VBA.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Many thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    please find attached. so to confirm, it is the second combobox which I would like to produce the list based on the output of the first combobox.

    In Cell L4, I have put the List reference if that helps.

    Many thanks once again.

    Hi Milo,

    I'm sorry I don't know how this could be done without VBA but still using ComboBox's

    Using Data Validation you wouldn't need to use VBA.

    Maybe someone else knows more about this than I do.

    regards

    Hi,

    Define a name called Second_List whose RefersTo property is
    =INDIRECT("List_"&Sheet1!$L$2)
    and then use Second_List as the Listfillrange for the second combobox.
