I have a large worksheet with four columns (A, B, C, D) with the titles: Item #, MFG, Model, Qty. There are about a 1000 items in total, which means each of these columns has a 1000 cells each. My goal is to create a second worksheet which is blank but has the same titles. I want a drop down list for each category which are dependent on each other, though only the first three columns will be dependent on each other. For example, the first row says this: Item # (Column A) = 12 (Row 1) ; MFG (Column B) = 43 ; Model (Column C) = Air Duster.
If I choose Item # 12, then I automatically want the MFG - 43 and the Model - Air Duster to show up in their respective columns (kind of like a conditional formatting type situation). Subsequently, if I choose MFG - 43 in Column B, then I automatically want Item # 12 and Model - Air Duster to show up in that same row under their assigned columns.
Is this possible? This is a large spreadsheet with about 1000 items per column. How long would something like this take? And, if what I am looking to accomplish isn't possible, does anyone have any other solutions which may give me similar results? Thanks.
