Hi,

I have been trying to find a solution for this, searched everywhere, but cant find anything. I have a sheet with multiple colums of names. I have another sheet in the same workbook where a user enters a name/names into specified cells. Is there a way to automatically remove all the matching names entered in the specified cells from the sheet with columns of names? Any help is appreciated please.

I found some worksheet change event and calculate codes online, but cannot figure out to implement it. I want any name entered in the "Remove from list" column to be automatically deleted/taken off from the worksheet.

Thank You.



<colgroup><col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:12617;width:259pt" width="345"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:3437;width:71pt" width="94"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:12617;width:259pt" width="345"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:3437;width:71pt" width="94"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:3986;width:82pt" width="109"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:3437;width:71pt" width="94"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:3437;width:71pt" width="94"> </colgroup><tbody>

Hi Tomcat,
I'm trying to get what you want:
-the user e.g. enters "Noah Woodfin", which would cause the cell with Noah Woodfin to be emptied?
-to get you started, this is a bit of code you could add to the sheet where the user types/selects the name.
-the next thing you want to do is to e.g. record a macro what the code should do, so e.g. clear the cell with that name in it

Hope this helps, if you got a bit further, please post your code here so people can help you with a next step.

Cheers,

Koen

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

If Intersect(Target, Range("D7:D9")) Is Nothing Then 
	Exit Sub
else
	'Do something
	Debug.print Target.Value
	'Loop through a range on a different sheet and empty a cell?
End if

End Sub
