Hello,

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to read this.

I've had an idea of how I'd like to set up my spreadsheet but I'm not sure if it's actually possible, I was hoping someone may be able to offer me some insight. I'm aware it may require some VBA programming to achieve.

Let's say I have a dropdown menu with different options. I'd like to be able to select one of those options and then have that selection determine the values in the cells below.

To give an example:

In this spreadsheet I have a drop down menu that allows me to select the model of the car, and further drop down menus that determine whether the optional extras are included or not.

When I select the basic model, the sheet automatically changes all of the optional extras to 'No'.

When I select the premium model, the sheet automatically changes all of the optional extras that apply to 'Yes'.

Is something like this possible? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
