Hi

I'm looking to achieve the following ! I don't know whether to use vlookup, offset, indirect or a combination of 2 have looked and looked and looked !! and can't find a solution similar to what I'm trying to achieve I did see one post similar but it didn't solve it for me :( ok here's what I need to do.

Table1 contains the following ( FYI all columns in each of the tables have defined name ranges)

Column1Column2
Process 1
ABC
Process 1DEF
Process 1GHI
Process 2JKL
Process 2MNO

<tbody>
</tbody>

Table 2
Column Name1Column Name2
Process 1so here I want a drop down which shows
only the values in Column2 from Table 1 that match Column Name1
so in this example it would be a drop down with
ABC
DEF
GHI

I wouldn't see JKL or MNO
Process 2In my drop down here I would see
JKL
MNO

<tbody>
</tbody>

I hope you can follow and I really hope there a solution :eek:

Many thanks in advance

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
