Hello, I did use formula right in the cell before. But If I remove other info the formula will be removed, so I decided to use data validation lists instead.
I'm having

Code:
=INDEX(OFFSET(BusinessNameStart;MATCH(D3;BusinessNameList;0)-1;2;COUNTIF(BusinessNameList;D3);1);1)

So, this one will find the email adress from the name in D3, and the email adress is saved in another sheet. It works fine, but. If I choose the name in D3, I want this code (in F3) to automatic show the first item in drop down list (there is only one item).

Im not sure how to do it.. Any idea?
