Hiding/ unhiding columns based on a data validation list on another sheet

[claz2201]

Hi all,

I am trying to hide/ unhide columns based on a 'Yes' / 'No' data validation list on another sheet.

The first sheet has a number of drop down lists, all with a yes/no outcome, I would like selected columns on a 'Tracker' sheet to be visible when the outcome is 'yes' and hidden when the outcome is 'no' for each list.

It has been suggested to use this VGA, but is has not worked so far;

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks in advance,

Claire, can you be more specific.
Tell us what cells or ranges in the first sheet affect what columns in the Tracker sheet.

 

[My Aswer Is This]

It would also be nice to know the exact names of both sheets.
Is Tracker sheet for example named "Tracker"

 

[claz2201]

On 'Home Page' cell D9 has the data validation list (Yes/No). 'No' needs to hide columns E:L on 'Tracker'.

 

[Snakehips]

Delete any previous Worksheet_Change event code from the code module for sheet 'Home Page' and paste in the below.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)


If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Intersect(Target, Range("D9")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub


If UCase(Target.Value) = "NO" Then


    Sheets("Tracker").Range("C1:I1").EntireColumn.Hidden = True
    
    Else
    Sheets("Tracker").Range("C1:I1").EntireColumn.Hidden = False
End If
End Sub

Hope that helps.

That works great for one, thank-you.
I am now trying to make this work for multiple columns, but this code doesn't seem to work when I copy it in and just change the ranges.

D22- to hide M1:T1
D35- to hide U1:Z1
O9- to hide AA1:AG1
O25- to hide AH1: AM1

All on the same sheets as above.

Thanks in advance.

 

[Snakehips]

Try replace previous code with...

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)


If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Intersect(Target, Range("D9, D22, D35, O9, O25")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub




    With Sheets("Tracker")
        Select Case Target.Address(False, False)
            Case "D9"
            Set MyCols = .Range("C1:I1")
            
            Case "D22"
            Set MyCols = .Range("M1:T1")
            
            
            Case "D35"
            Set MyCols = .Range("U1:Z1")
            
            Case "O9"
            Set MyCols = .Range("AA1:AG1")
            
            Case "O25"
            Set MyCols = .Range("AH1:AM1")
            
       End Select
      End With
      
If UCase(Target.Value) = "NO" Then
    MyCols.EntireColumn.Hidden = True
        
       Else
        MyCols.EntireColumn.Hidden = False
End If


End Sub

Thanks, that works a treat!

Hi - I am having a similar problem but I am working in one sheet only. I have rows of data which I want to hide based on the text in column A. This states either HIDE or SHOW and is driven by an IF formula. I want to place a macro button on this page that the user can click and it will hide all the rows were text in column A says HIDE. Any help appreciated!

 

[Snakehips]

KateBurrow, welcome .

Try....

Sub Hide_Show()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False


lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row


Range("A1:A" & lr).EntireRow.Hidden = False
    For Each Cell In Range("A1:A" & lr)
        If UCase(Cell) = "HIDE" Then Cell.EntireRow.Hidden = True
    Next Cell
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Hope that helps.
