Hi all. Im new to this forum. I have tried looking for the answer before posting this as I realise this question has been posted a few times, but I can never get the example formulas to work on my spreadsheet. So, I will post the scenario and exact cell ref's Im using, in hope that someone can give me the answer. (thanks in advance)
I've put a spreadsheet together showing our fleet cars. When we get a new car, a user will add the vehicle to the list of current cehicles. (worksheet called VEHICLE, the list for adding new vehicles runs from cells A4 to A2000)
To avoid mispelling of makes, I have set up a data validation list on these cells relating to a list on another sheet. This list is on a sheet called SOURCE and in cells A5:A95. The list has been named "Vehicles".
When adding a new vehicle to our fleet, the user would select which vehicle they want to add from the drop-down list. I have got this working fine. The bit I'm struggling with is if I add a new vehicle to the source list, I want it to automatically be available in the drop down list on the main worksheet. Please can someone advise me how to do this (when giving an example, please try to use the cells and worksheet names I have used above).
Just to clarify, below are the cells, worksheet names and data validation list names I have put together:
Main sheet (where users choose new vehicles to the fleet from the drop down list) - called VEHICLES. The drop down lists run from cells A4-A2000
Source sheet where the list of vehicles relate to: Sheet is called SOURCE and the list of vehicles are in cells A5 - A95-I have named the list Vehicles
Any help would be appreciated - please guide as basic as possible - thanks for your time
