    You are the hero!!! I have been watching other video tutorials on how to make search drop down list in excel in ActiveX Combo and it was such a long procedure.... But when I came across your method, it didn't take me 5 min to finish something that I have been spending an entire day to figure out how to make it worked -- and it wasn't even working!! Thanks so much for this brilliant video tutorial!!! What a prodigy!

    Thanks for the tutorial.
    I'm trying to build a form whereby I use a drop down list in one cell, then the next adjacent cell I have another dropdown list. but that is using one of many lists dependent on the item selected in the first cell.
    Hope that makes sense, how could I do that?
    Thanks

    GREAT video! I'm very new at this and you made it really easy to understand, so please don't kill me for asking a dumb question. I got the whole video, but how can I tie the developer combo box to numbers? Example, when I use VLOOKUP I can select the table array and then choose the column with numbers. How do I do that with the combo box?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thank you for the tutorial. Very informative. Is there a way to raise a warning message if the same drop down item is selected twice? lets say in your tutorial example, you should not select the same month twice. Is there a way to warn you if you happen to select, lets say January twice? Thanks in advance

    @saleemtawakol Před 8 lety +1

    Assume I have 3 lists. List 1 has options A, B and C. If A is selected then I need a drop-down menu that is fetched from list 2 in an adjacent cell. I also want another cell next to it to have another drop-down menu that fetches its data from list 3 if A is selected as well. This means that the drop-down menus created both are dependent on list 1. How do I do this?

    • @OzduSoleilDATA
      @OzduSoleilDATA Před 8 lety

      +Gareth Standen a reason to use ActiveX or form controls is the ability to position and size the controls wherever you want. Suppose you want to cluster several controls in one area, but if you make them directly in cells, the controls will be all spread out, all different sizes, and not look so nice.
      ActiveX controls are a different beast.
      The main reason for ActiveX controls is the amount of formatting that you can do with them. As she showed, you can change the font, the font size and color.
      However, I was warned that ActiveX controls are the devil. Sure enough, I learned that they are very unstable. They're known to stop working when there are upgrades to Excel. And if you share a workbook with other people, ActiveX controls may not work for everyone. Some folks might have ActiveX disabled and refuse to enable ActiveX.
      They can be ticking time bombs.

      I agree. I now know how to make 3 different types of drop down but I don't know why I might choose one over the other, I don't know what happened with the Form Control type when she changed the cell link from E16 to D16 - why? Would I want to do that - what happens if I do or don't? It was very clear on how to do it but not why.
