Hi all,
I have been tasked with coming up with a spreadsheet for a client to keep track of some sales data.
On one of the sheets they want to have 3 columns which a sales person fills in from a pre-defined list of values - all simple enough so far. However, the underlying values are the same across all three columns but the same value can not be chosen in more than column; ideally with the lists in the other two columns changing as the value in any of the columns changes. The sales person also needs to be able to enter data in multiple rows.
So ... they want to provide a list of values, say, 'A,B,C,D' and they want a 3 column by unlimited row sheet where each cell contains one item from the list (or is empty) and a value in the list can only appear at most once per row but as many times as they want per column.
Any one got ideas if this possible ? And is it likely to be possible using just the List GUI ? Or likely to need some VBA type script/macro ?
