    Data Validation (List)

    I have a series of text written in Sheet1, coloumn A. From A1 to A20.

    In Sheet 2 coloumn B5 to B10 I would like to create a list type data validation in such a way that it searches till the end of the last text written ie. A20.
    Next the moment I write any data in Sheet1 A21, automatically the data validation list gets displayed till A21.

    Re: Data Validation (List)

    You can do that by defining a (dynamic) named range

    Naming a range with the following formula in the "refers to" box and then pointing your data validation list to this named range should do the trick.

    =OFFSET(Sheet1!$A$1;0;0;COUNTA(Sheet1!$A:$A);1)
