Data Set:
Sheet1 (Table 'Alpha' on Sheet1!A1:B200)
-ColumnA: Employee_Name (sorted A-Z)
-ColumnB: Qualification_Code (01A, 01B, ..., 01Z) (Each employee has a single Code, but multiple employees have the same Code)

Sheet2 (Sheet2!A1:C100)
-ColumnA: Position_Title
-ColumnB: Position_Code (01A, 01B, ..., 01Z) (Each position has a single Code, but multiple positions can have the same Code)
-ColumnC: Qualified_Employee (where I want to put a drop-down list that only shows qualified employees based on the Position Code)​

Question:
How do I create a data validation list in Sheet2!ColumnC that will show a list of qualified employees based on the Position Code in Sheet2!ColumnB? Due to other functionalities, I have to leave Table 'Alpha' sorted as-is.

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
Thank you for helping! Unfortunately, my work computer is pretty locked down and won't let me enable macros a downloaded .xlsm file. I'll test this at home and let you know if I have any questions.
