    Create multi selection (dependent) dropdowns

    HI


    I created single selection dependent dropdowns by using formulas. By using this as reference, Can you please create multi selection dropdowns ((filter type dropdown). Add "All" option in all dropdowns. Based on single/multiple selection , Data should filter in the same sheet (Sheet - "Sample Data")

    I would appreciate If anyone help me.


    Regards

    The forum rules here (and at many other locations) do not forbid crossposting. If you do, then we ask that you indicate where you are crossposting. In that manner, no one is wasting time trying to solve an issue that has been resolved at another location. Read the link in Ali's post for a better understanding.

    Re: Create multi selection (dependent) dropdowns

    This is an example of 3 dependent data validation, with VBA. You can easily set up more than 3 dependent data validations as needed.
    Notes:
    1. You only need 1 table as data validation source, 1 helper column, 1 named range & 1 simple formula in data validation (ie =xName).
    2. The columns where data validation reside may or may not be contiguous.
    3. The list in the table may have duplicate, empty & unsorted, but the code will make the list in data validation unique, sorted & non-empty. The list is also dynamic, you can add more data as needed.
    4. In the range with data validation, changing or deleting cell contents will delete cells in the next column with data validation. It is to maintain data consistency.
    5. But one caveat of using macro is when macro changes/writes something on sheet it will delete Undo Stack, so at that time you can't use UNDO. In this case it happens every time you put the cursor in a cell with data validation.

    Example:

    Re: Create multi selection (dependent) dropdowns

    Thank you for reply.

    My requirement is, i need multi selection (filter type) dependent dropdowns.

    I created single selection dependent dropdowns (A2:G2 -- by using formulas). in place of same dropdown cells, i want to create multiple selection(filter type) dropdown. Based on the multiple selection , i have to create summaries, charts.

    Note: in the multi selection drop down Please add "All" option. Based on multi selection (VBA Event) , filtered source data should be placed in other sheet.


    I will be grateful if you can help me...
