Hi,

I have a question related to using Data Validation to make Dependant Lists, ie. lists that vary depending on selections made from another list.

I have this working when I use definite range name references ie. List1 =Sheet1!$A$2:$A$5 List2 =Sheet1!$B$2:$B$4 and so on. However if I wish to use the Offest function to define the range name so that I can add to the lists without having to re-define the range names [ie. List1 =OFFSET($A$1,1,0,counta($A:$A)-1,1)], the data validation no longer works.

I am self taught in Excel and am only just starting to play with VBA, so would greatly appreciate any help you are able to offer.

Thanks in advance,

Flemingo.

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
