How can I create a dependent drop down menu where I am able to enter a code and find all the descriptions that apply?


Example:

Code Description


Data:

Code Description

10030CT Drainage Soft Tissue w/Guide
10030IR Drainage Soft Tissue w/Guide
10030US Drainage Soft Tissue w/Guide
10160CT Abscess Drainage Lower Extremity
10160CT Abscess Drainage Perineal

Excel Facts

Formula for Yesterday
Name Manager, New Name. Yesterday =TODAY()-1. OK. Then, use =YESTERDAY in any cell. Tomorrow could be =TODAY()+1.

Thanks, but that didn't work--I don't get anything on the description. I only get the code drop down

Create a separate Name range for code description and combine both Drop Down lists ( Code and Description lists) using INDIRECT, VLOOKUP functions for dependent list
