Sheet 1 Column A = Customer ID
Sheet 1 Column B = Customer Name
Data in Column A and B is sorted Alphabetically by column B everytime a new record is created.
Sheet 1 Column C = Primary Customer ID
Each cell in Column C is a data validation list of Sheet 1 Column A, most records in Column C will be blank (no selection made in the drop down), but sometimes we have two customers under different names and numbers, that I want to sum their outstanding balances as a total.
Sheet 1 Column D = Outstanding Balance
Since my data is sorted alphabetically by name in column B, the sort order of the ID in column A is non sensical, selecting it in the drop down is difficult because column A is not sorted, So you have to hunt through the data validation drop down to find the number.
I wish their was a sort order option in the data validation window or something like that. I was thinking of using a combo box, but I would have hundreds of combo boxes.
