Hello,
I'm needing to solve a problem on my worksheet and I think a worksheet event may be the best method, although I'm open to a suggestion on another way.
I have a range of cells (Column B) dependent on two other cells : A13 & A14, each having their own data validation lists (D.V.L.). A13 is a list of two different fruits "Apples" or "Bananas". A14 is a list with sequential numbers 1 through 8.
If the text in Cell A13 contains the text "Banana", I would like a new D.V.L. to be placed in each cell in Column B. But I want that to be dependent on the number displayed from the list in A14. The new D.V.L. can be automatically put in B1. However, if A14 is 2 only then to I want the D.V. to be in B2, and if A14 is 3, then the list appears in B3 and so on through 8 based on the number selected in A14. Also, there will be a pre-dominantly popular option consisting of 90%+ of occurrences . So I would like it when this new D.V.L. appears in any cell in Column B, that it would default displaying the forth item on that list. This will add a little efficiency for the user.
But then here is an additional condition. If the A13 is "Apples" (instead of Bananas) I want all data validation lists previously running down Column B to be removed then have the user manually input anything into the same cell.
I would also like to make all of column B to be blank before the user selects from either list in A13 or A14.
Can this work with Worksheet Event? Is there a more efficient way to do this outside of combination of nested formulas using helper cells?
Thank you,
Nathan
