Given a table with 5 columns such as:
Reftextjoin()cat1cat2cat3
1west_2024_status1west2024status1
2north_2024_status2north2024status2
3east_2023_status1east2023status1
4south_2024_status1south2024status1
5north_2023_status1north2023status1
6south_2023_status1south2023status1
7west_2024_status2west2024status2
8south_2023_status2south2023status2
9north_2023_status2north2023status2
10south_2024_status2south2024status2


I have one combobox related to the second Column textjoin(), an OFFSET Named range fills up said combobox

me1.jpg


I am looking into limiting the data based on two other combobox, here cat1 and cat2
So for example choosing "south" from the cat1 box:
me2.jpg

And choosing "2023" from cat2 box:
me3.jpg

Such would then limit the available search of the last box to here in this example only 2 entries:
me4.jpg


I am not looking into filtering the table in any manner, the table structure is unchanged.
Any suggestion?
