    How do I subtract a value from a specific cell from a drop down box with list of numbers?

    Hello Everyone,

    How do I subtract a value from a specific cell from a drop-down box with a list of numbers? As shown on the image attached, I would like to choose a number from QTY dropdown box E2 (1 - 5) and then subtract the number from a specific cell e.g. C2 which currently has a value of 10.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks in advance,

    You could use the Worksheet_Change event, so when there is a change in column E, column C will calculate.

    Are you familiar with VBA for xl?
