Hello Excel World,
Hoping someone can help me out or point me in the right direction! I am definitely a noob to Excel but have used YouTube to guide me to where I am so far with this project.
I am creating an event register/tracker that is "self-sufficient" meaning that I want it to identify events based off a criteria and to create an additional tab with just a subset of those identified events. To do this, I have used PowerQuery to filter out the desired events and it works perfectly. However, these events need a bit more investigation and I am hoping to add columns within the PowerQuery with drop down lists.
The issue I am encountering is that even though I have duplicated other columns to use, when the data set refreshes, my drop down lists vanish and the previous (original data set) column's preferences re-appear.
What can I do to prevent this from happening? Is there a way to create a subset of data with additional columns powered by drop down lists?
I've spent over 5 hours in YouTube videos and can't find the answer. Thanks in advance!
