Hello Mr. Excel community and thank you for your help! You all are always teaching me new things thank you.
I have a validation drop down list on sheet 2, with the original list on sheet 1. The list on sheet 1 has a specific fill color based on the name of the item.
How can I make it so that the color coded name shows up when that name is selected in the validation box.
I've looked around and found this topic www.mrexcel.com/forum/excel-questions/51589-dropdown-list-values-how-maintain-original-format.html
Which seems to be what I'm looking for except that it's different sheets. I've also never done event coding so I'm struggling with understanding the code.
Looking forward to resources to help me learn. Once again thank you!
