Hello! I see a lot of examples online about creating dependent drop down lists but none seem to fit my current data setup.
The data setup is similar to the following: (sheet name = "List") (data below starts with Row 1)
I need to add a dependent drop down list on a separate sheet in column B, cell B2 (sheet name = "Report"). (data below starts with Row 1)
The dependent list in B2 should should display options from the list above ("List" worksheet) based on the selection in A2.
I think that I can use an OFFSET/Match formula in the Data Validation Source field, but I can't quite figure out to setup the formula. Thanks in advance!
The data setup is similar to the following: (sheet name = "List") (data below starts with Row 1)
ColumnA-Test | ColumnB-Type |
TEST-A | Math |
TEST-B | Science |
TEST-C | Philosophy |
TEST-C | Humanities |
TEST-D | Art |
TEST-E | History1 |
TEST-E | History2 |
TEST-F | Computer Science |

Column A - Select Test | Column B -Lookup Type [dependent drop down list] |
(If I select "TEST-C" from drop down list here...) | (...I should see only two options on the drop down list here) |
