What I have is a drop down list with 6 options: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and the last option is a blank cell. When I open the spreadsheet, I can choose on of the 6 options and it will output a different text in another cell per the option I chose. What I want to do is have a reset button that sends the drop down list back to the blank cell.

I can create the button but cannot figure out the macro code to chose the blank cell from the drop down list. Any help would be much appreciated!

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
What kind of dropdown list are you using? From data validation or a Form control(combobox or listbox)?
