I have a drop down box in cell A6, which contains the name of ranges from another worksheet.

I'm trying to add a list box that populates with the data from the named range selected in A6.

I've tried setting the input range to A6, which populates the list box with whatever value was selected in A6 and I've tried setting the input range equal to indirect(A6), which gives me nothing.

Here's a small example:

Named Range Gender includes: Male and Female
Named Range Age includes: 18-39, 40-59 and 60-79
Named Range Income includes: 0-30k, 30k-50k and 50k-70k.

A6 drop down allows you to select Gender, Age or Income.
List box should populate with Male and Female if Gender Selected in A6, or 18-39, 40-59 and 60-79 if Age selected, etc.

Any ideas on how to make this work? I've tried looking all afternoon, but it seems I can't find just the right example of my issue or anything close enough to work from.

Thanks in advance.
