    Exclamation How can I create a drop down menu? Special Instructions.

    I would like to create a drop down list that once an item is selected from the list, the item cannot be selected anymore and only the item numbers available pop up in the drop down. How can I create the drop down menu to contain all the available item numbers and not the item numbers that have been used already using all 3 columns with the data.

    I made a start with column B items
    If this works you can apply it to A and C items

    G'day Matt,

    If you think that your going to have trouble following Piet example of drop drown menu that hides an used item to implement into your own workbook. Click here from more detailed instructions. Please note that its not exactly like Piet example but the end result is the same.
    Have I made you happy ??? If yes, please make me happy by pressing the http://www.excelforum.com/images/buttons/reputation-40b.png Add Reputation button in my post.

    I don't void confusion, I create it
