    Thank you, Kevin, a bit late with this video, if you only posted this 2 weeks ago that would have been a lifesaver ! I had a project to work on with the exact same things presented in your video. Took me a while until I've figured it out. Another cool trick is to hide and lock the other sheet where the data is so no one else has access to it in case you are the manager who allocates different things on the project.

      You're absolutely right! Locking and hiding the sheet is a great idea, especially if multiple people are working on the project. It helps ensure that only authorized users can access or modify the data while keeping everything organized and secure. Thanks for sharing that tip! 🚀

    If your table is on the same sheet as your cell, you don't need the named range. Another option of creating a dynamic list is by using the UNIQUE function. Let's say you have a list of your products and you want people to choose one. If your UNIQUE is in say T2 then you type T2# in the source. New items will show up. For that method it doesn't matter where the UNIQUE cell is.

      True! If the table is on the same sheet as the cell, there's no need for a named range. And great tip on using the UNIQUE function! That’s a super handy way to create a dynamic list that updates automatically when new items are added. Thanks for sharing! 🚀

    Thank you, Kevin.
    I created a table, which I will be changing month to month.
    How do I change the header/title of the table when I want to re-enter new data?
    Thank you!

      True, but it's a good reminder if you've not done it for a while. :)

    a 9m video for something you could literally learn in 30 seconds. unsubscribed for stretching the sht out of every video you have done in the last 3 month or so .

      I share these videos on our company intranet and they are very popular with users who are not very tech savvy but would like to learn how to better use office apps. This content is not for everyone. But lots of people still find it useful/helpful.

      I cover how to make a simple drop-down in the first 1.5 minutes for those who just need the basics. The rest of the video dives into more advanced scenarios, like referencing cells for a drop-down and making it update automatically based on table values. When I cover a topic, I prefer to provide an in-depth overview so viewers can fully understand the feature rather than just a surface-level explanation. I appreciate the feedback and understand that different people prefer different video lengths!
