    Hello -

    Can someone explain to me how the "dynamic dropdowns" excel works? I don't see any macros in the document.

    Thanks!!

    dyrflr21,

    Unfortunately you need to post your question in a new thread, it's against the forum rules to post a question in the thread of another user. If you create your own thread, any advice will be tailored to your situation so you should include a description of what you've done and are trying to do. Also, if you feel that this thread is particularly relevant to what you are trying to do, you can surely include a link to it in your new thread.
