    Formula Too Long For Excel, Need To Function Or VBA It?

    Greetings Forum,

    I currently have a formula which I use to build a dynamic list. This formula was created through the forum (see thread: http://www.excelforum.com/search.php?searchid=1594454 ) and has worked great until I had to add another 14 product groups.... which made the formula too long.

    These are the following product groups (named ranges) to add to the formula,

    DLSlopeScreenSeparator
    DLXpress
    DLFlushValve
    DLAuxiliaryFlushPanel
    DLSteel90Elbow
    DLSteelYAdapter
    DL75mmAirRelief
    DLPLCAutomatic
    DLOption5
    DLOption6
    DLSandTrapDrainDoor
    DLDiaphragmControlSwitch
    DL150mmKnifeValve
    DLFlowRegulator

    ....which would make the formula way to long for excel. Is there a function that can be built in VBA or a macro that can be run to do the same thing?

    See attached sheet. Cell A1 on "Pricing" Sheet contains instructions.

    Many Thanks.

    -Ollie

    What is the purpose of the formula?
    Thanks,
    Solus


    Please remember the following:

    1. Use [code] code tags [/code]. It keeps posts clean, easy-to-read, and maintains VBA formatting.
    Highlight the code in your post and press the # button in the toolbar.
    2. Show appreciation to those who have helped you by clicking below their posts.

    Hi Solus, purpose is to build one dynamic list of products from multiple named ranges.

    As per the attached attached file you will find the lists of data on the "Products_And_Kits" sheet and the dynamic list on the "PriceBook" sheet.

    Instructions are in cell A1 on the "PriceBook" sheet.

    Thanks,

    -Ollie
