    IF function question

    Hi all I would like to ask how I will use this function with the example below:

    If a1 is not equivalent to TRANSFER then N/A must auto-populate a3. But if a1 is TRANSFER then a3 should have a dropdown list.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi blue_izce8,

    Is it possible that you can have N/A in the dropdown list along with other elements in A3 ?

    we are actually thinking of saving time that is why we wanted to make the N/A appear without being chosen

    Re: IF function question

    Okay.. then only solution, as per me, is VBA (macros)... if you are fine with this, upload a sample workbook having your test data. thanks.

    Re: IF function question

    You need to include that VBA (Module) in your file .. thats it.

    but I doubt if you stuck, it will invite re-work for both of us.. hence asking you to upload a sample file. thanks.
