    Dependent Data Validation list using dynamic range filtered from multiple criterion

    I'm trying to get the sheaves to automatically create a filtered list dependent on selected motor and large sheave bore input on "user inputs" tab. the sheaves match based on bushing type or bore diameter. I tried to create the ranges for the sheaves lists using advanced filter based on table[#all] as list range, the listed criteria ranges listed in the criteria range tab and copy to lists tab. This ultimately did no work right, I also don't want "Item Number and Description" to show up in the list. I would like these ranges to update automatically If new sheaves or bushing get added to table 5 or bushings list. Can someone please help me out with tis or help give a different method of doing this. If this requires a vba macro I could really use help because I have very little experince in coding. This got handed off to me and I hardly understand the complicated nested index and match functions that popultate the selected bushing. Thank you

    Edit: ah, you already did that

    Welcome to the forum.

    You uploaded a .zip file. Please upload an Excel workbook. It does NOT need to be your entire project, just a copy of the relevant data to illustrate the issue you wish to resolve.

    Re: Dependent Data Validation list using dynamic range filtered from multiple criterion

    I guess I should rephrase. When I select a bore size I want it to return a data validation list with all the possible sheave combinations that go with the bore size. Some Sheaves dont need a bushing and will match on bore size some require a bushing of differnt types depending the style and bore size of the bushing. How do I get those to show up in a dependent data validation list when the bore size or motor (depends on bore size as well)is selected.

    Re: Dependent Data Validation list using dynamic range filtered from multiple criterion

    The current dependent drop downs refer to the 'Sheaves' sheet, however there isn't any information about the HP of the motor on that sheet. My thinking is that you would need to include a column stating the HP of the motor on the 'Sheaves' sheet in order to accomplish what you want. Looking at the motors sheet I would guess that a motor is can be matched to a bore up to a certain diameter, as in a 10 HP motor can be matched to a bore up to 1.375, however I would want to be sure about this before producing a column.
    Also in the example the values that are shown in A8:A9 do not seem to match the bore (1.500). I did not check the values in the other blue columns of rows 8:9. It is always helpful to show expected values so that contributors can attempt to replicate those values using formulas/code.
    Once the HP values are added to the 'Sheaves' sheet and the expected values are placed (manually if necessary) in rows 8:9 of the 'User Inputs' sheet please re-upload the file.
    Let us know if you have any questions.
