hello,

I have a little problem. here is my sample excel data. its fairly large.
ABCDE
AAAAA1
AAABB2
nullnull3
BBBCC4
BBBDD5

<tbody>
</tbody>










So i want to change the values in column A and B. so i want to input a number (1-5) in column B and values of column A and B should change according to that number. For example if put 1 in B1, values of A1 should be AAA and value of B1 should be AA. again if i put 4 in b2 value of A2 should be BBB and value of B2 should be CC. How i can do that?

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
Copy and paste this macro into the worksheet code module. Do the following: right click the tab for your sheet and click 'View Code'. Paste the macro into the empty code window that opens up. Close the code window to return to your sheet. Enter a values in column B and exit the cell
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
    If Intersect(Target, Range("B:B")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim foundVal As Range
    Set foundVal = Range("E:E").Find(Target, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
    If Not foundVal Is Nothing Then
        Target = foundVal.Offset(0, -1)
        Target.Offset(0, -1) = foundVal.Offset(0, -2)
    End If
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
