    How to remove items from a list as they are selected?

    See attached workbook.

    I have a several tabs all setup the same way.

    Column B7:B:10 is a Postion. QB, RB, WR, TE....
    Based off of the Position the next column will only show players in that position. C7:C10
    These lists for QB, RB, WR.... are setup on a tab called SETTINGS.

    What I would like to do is as a player is selected, that player no longer displays in the the list on any tab in the workbook.

    Example: On the Tab labeled EB. I choose QB for my poisiton, Anderson,Derek for my Player. If I go to any other tab or any other place and pick QB I do not want to see Anderson,Derek in my QB list anymore.

    Hi Vack,

    In trying to understand your problem, it seems your data structure is too hard.

    I'd put all players on a single sheet, in a single table.
    Then I'd do a pivot table or something to eliminate players or positions that have already been selected. Having multiple sheets just makes the problem harder.

    I hope this helps, although not what you wanted for an answer.
    One test is worth a thousand opinions.

    Here is a sheet that may give tou some ideas.

    I got it from this forum a few years ago and have found it a very useful tool. I forgot who wrote the original so if someone remembers pleas give them credit.
