I have a validation table for a drop down list that contains codes we need for our database. For example, CategoryCode: D-S; D-P; D-E, etc. The person entering data into the spreadsheet may not know which code to use or make a simple error.
Is there a way to include a label or to append a brief description, yet only capture the code into the cell? Ex: D-S - “Donor Scholarship”. I only want the “D-S” code captured in the spreadsheet.
No VBA. If not, ideas for another solution to help us with data integrity would be welcomed.
Thank you.
