Greetings people,

I am having a huge blockade right now and I would need an inspiration...

I built a database for our employee to fill in. From Time to Time, we know that false information can be filled in. I have certain "Keys" that guides me to check if what they have filled in is correct. Now for corporate data protection, I am not allowed to show it here, but I can give you an almost 1 to 1 of what i want to do.

KEYS (own Worksheet):

[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Plant Type[/TD]
[TD]Product[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Vegetable[/TD]
[TD]Eggplant[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Fruits[/TD]
[TD]Apple[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Vegetable[/TD]
[TD]Cabbis[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Fruits[/TD]
[TD]Pear[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Vegetable[/TD]
[TD]Carrot[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Vegetable[/TD]
[TD]Carrot[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]


TEST WORKSHEET (Separate Worksheet)

[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Plant Type[/TD]
[TD]Product[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Vegetable[/TD]
[TD]Apple[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Fruit[/TD]
[TD]Carrot[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Vegetable[/TD]
[TD]Carrot[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

I would need a VBA coding that I can execute "Ad Hoc" to check if everything is OK in the "TEST Worksheet". So in this case, it should indicate that "FRUIT and CARROT" cannot be right.

You guys have any ideas how i should do that?

Kind regards

Ildestino
 

Excel Facts

How to show all formulas in Excel?
Press Ctrl+` to show all formulas. Press it again to toggle back to numbers. The grave accent is often under the tilde on US keyboards.
U could have 2 listboxes. One for plant type and one for products. When a plant type selection is made, only the correct possibilities are shown in the product listbox for the user to select ie. zero chance of error. HTH. Dave
