    You sir, are a GENIUS! Best solution yet for those without access to Dynamic Arrays in Excel 365. That too you have implemented it without any VBA/Macro or other such advanced functions that are difficult for non-experts. Beautifully explained and I just had to follow you step by step to get the outcome.
    Thank you!

    A very useful video, thanks Kazi.While I was testing it I wasn't sure about the user experience of trying to use the lookup list without entering anything in the search box.
    ie if they just click on the scroll button on the search field then there is nothing in the list.
    So I modified my version of this formula
    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(ROWS($J$4:J4),CountryOfOrigin,2,FALSE),"")
    I changed it to this
    =IFERROR(IF(MAX(CountryOfOrigin[Helper])=0,INDEX(CountryOfOrigin[Country],ROWS($J$4:J4)),VLOOKUP(ROWS($J$4:J4),CountryOfOrigin,2,FALSE)),"")
    So basically if there isn't a value in the helper column then it displays the full original list.
    Cheers, Richard

    • @Excel10tutorial
      @Excel10tutorial  2 роки тому

      A fullstop before all names. So when you need all name list, you just type fullstop.

    Fantabulous...
    Felt that you are explaining in front of me.
    Using the filter function this helped, but unfortunately, it is available only with Office 365.
    Your tutorial helps me to find admission numbers through a searchable drop-down list...

  • @ravishankaraprabhu398
    @ravishankaraprabhu398 Рік тому

    Thank you very much. Very nicely explained. Can the list be sorted in alphabetical order? We have to give a space and then only all the items get displayed. While pressing the drop down without typing, no items are displayed. Is there a way to get over this.

    Hi there, I have a question! Isn't this method going to trigger the creation of the "filter" each time you write anything in excel? I can see that this would be amazing a small file but have you tested this on a massive file?

    Hi. How to make it work if new row with data was inserted to the table? Lets say in a middle of the table. It dosn't show up in searchable dropdown menu. Helper row is missing formula then.

    Hello, one question, does this also work with Excel 365?

    • @Excel10tutorial
      @Excel10tutorial  10 місяців тому

      365 doesn't need this complex option. you can do this using search and filter function. That's much easier.

    • @Excel10tutorial
      @Excel10tutorial  10 місяців тому

      Just create a dropdown list. Click on Data - Data Validation - Select List - Select the range where you have dropdown value. In the dropdown cell if you write something it should be searchable in 365. You don't need anything.
