Good day.
I have a need to use a pull-down and then have the selected value moved from the pull-down cell to the next blank cell in an adjacent column. Then go back to the original pull-down list, select again and have the selected value placed in the next blank cell in the adjacent column.

[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]A[/TD]
[TD]B[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]1[/TD]
[TD]pull-down linked
to data validation list[/TD]

[TD]2[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]1st selection[/TD]

[TR]
[TD]3[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]2nd selection[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]4[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]3rd selection[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Thank you in advance

Your wanting the script to choose the value from The Data Validation list?
Or do you mean you will choose the value from the Data Validation list and the script will copy the value to the last used row+1 in column B.
And do you want the original value you chose cleared from column A?
