Hey I need help on this:
Capture d'écran 2024-05-20 152036.png

I first solved the proplem of showing the correct cities based on the what was selected in the first drop menu by using this formulas in data validation: (coutry and city are named ranges for countries and cities).
IF($E$3="US",OFFSET(city, 0, 0, 2, 1),city)
But the problem is that drop down values are not autofilled for example If I pick international and click on Paris, paris will stay there even if I changed to E3 to us.

What I want to achive here to make drop down values dynamic change values after changing value of the controlling drop down or at least make the first value as default I whish you got me. Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
This is auto fill drop down i did a while back. It is for three, but you can just cut out the 3rd one.
I think you have the functions that can build these lists, etc.
(I just rechecked, 2019 has filter but not unique - sorry)
