I have a worksheet which comprises of a weekly schedule by week number for which team plays which team. I would like to create a dropdown list of each week number, i.e., Week-1, Week-2, etc. and when a given week is clicked on for it to automatically navigate to that week number on the worksheet. I am familiar with how to create a dropdown list but need help with how to complete the navigation task. I have attached a view of the complete first two weeks as an example of the table.

If you were looking for a VBA Worksheet Change Event solution, then the following may give you what you want. Copy the code to the sheet code area of whatever sheet you are using. Change dropdown cell & column with weeks listed to suit.

VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
    If Not Intersect(Range("C1"), Target) Is Nothing Then   '<~~ Change dropdown cell (C1) to suit
        Dim JumpTo As Long, WeekNo As String
        WeekNo = Target.Value
        JumpTo = Application.Match(WeekNo, Me.Columns(1), 0)    '<~~ assumes column A (1) change to suit
        Application.Goto Me.Cells(JumpTo, 1), scroll:=1
    End If
End Sub

Thank you Toadstool.

I tried your suggestion by setting up the dropdown list in one cell and the "jump" in the cell to the right. After a couple adjustments got it to work perfectly. Was wondering if there was someway of combining the two cells into one or whatever so that when I click on the arrow for the dropdown and then click on say "Week - 11" it would immediately navigate to the cell which "jump" would do so, T226.

Sounds like a good suggestion. My understanding of VBA codes is very limited. Would there be anyway of incorporating =HYPERLINK("#T"&MATCH($J$3,$F$7:$F$9999,0)+ROW($T$25),"JUMP")?

Otherwise, I would need some help getting this VBA to work:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Range("C1"), Target) Is Nothing Then '<~~ Change dropdown cell (C1) to suit
Dim JumpTo As Long, WeekNo As String
WeekNo = Target.Value
JumpTo = Application.Match(WeekNo, Me.Columns(1), 0) '<~~ assumes column A (1) change to suit
Application.Goto Me.Cells(JumpTo, 1), scroll:=1
End If
End Sub

With my dropdown list located in J3, would I change any references to "C1" to "J3"? If there are any, what other changes would I need to make?

JumpTo = Application.Match(WeekNo, Me.Columns(1), 0) '<~~ assumes column A (1) change to suit
Application.Goto Me.Cells(JumpTo, 1), scroll:=1
End If
End Sub

OK, follow these steps:
1. Right-click on the sheet tab and select "View Code".
2. The VBA code area for that sheet should appear
3. The large area to the right of screen is where you copy the code (below) to (your assumption is correct - I've changed the reference from C1 to J3)
4. Save the file as a macro-enabled or binary excel file & test

VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
    If Not Intersect(Range("J3"), Target) Is Nothing Then
        Dim JumpTo As Long, WeekNo As String
        WeekNo = Target.Value
        JumpTo = Application.Match(WeekNo, Me.Columns(1), 0)    '<~~ assumes column A (1) change to suit
        Application.Goto Me.Cells(JumpTo, 1), scroll:=1
    End If
End Sub

The code assumes that Column A contains the Week-# that the code will attempt to Match.
