    I can only hope to get an answer but: I am attempting to use the copying method shown @08:36, removing one '$' to move the referred cell down the column, but I keep getting an error. I'm using Microsoft 365, could there be a difference in versions used and displayed?

      Same issue, what I did was closed the web version and open it in Desktop Excel, remove the '$' , since it auto-sync to cloud, closed it and open it again in 0365. it works. Cool Video!!! this is the only one that worked for me.

    Loved the video! But how do I remove/don't show the blanks in the dropdown using this method? I understand how to do it with the filtered data. But if I try this in data validation it says invalid formula

  • @250Pants

    7:50 when I enter the dollar signs to reference absolute values, my data validation prompts an error "This entry leads to an error. Try entering different values to continue" . The formula does work without the dollar signs. Any clues?

      You can use the filter function by filtering out all the non-zero entries. If you do it that way, is more useful to have the zero values than the &"" mentioned on 4:02

    Great Video - helped me with what I needed. I just subscribed to your channel. I have a question - I skimmed the comments and I don't belive it was asked. At 8:50 you changed the Fruit to Lemons but the Type stayed the same (still listing a Type of orange). Is there a way to "clear" the dependent data validation list (in Type) when you change the "parent" (Fruit) list? Thank you!

  • @picataggio
    @picataggio 2 роки тому

    having an issue. The dependent works in the First cell I put the formula in, =XLOOKUP(D3,'Category & Sub Master'!C5:J5,'Category & Sub Master'!C6:J16) , When I copy it to the next Cell it copies fine, =XLOOKUP(D4,'Category & Sub Master'!C6:J6,'Category & Sub Master'!C7:J17) , and it brings up the little arrow to allow me to pull down but it will not pull down, the cell will not let me choose anything. Any thoughts on what is happening??

    Really close to working - but Office 365 doesn't let me remove the one $ sign from the data validation that would let this cascade. So frustrating being so close. Otherwise, this works perfectly.

    Please consider 'building' the base array from a two-column table say Fruit Group, and Fruit Variety....use Unique to generate a unique list of Fruit Group, and a combination of Filter and transpose to generate a range of Fruit variety....then you know the rest....this way the user only maintains a 2-column table...thank you

    How about with checkbox clicked. Each checkbox has a value. Example: if the user clicks the Excellent checkbox the value is 1, if Very Good the value is 2 and so forth. So how I can make the value pops up next cell or in another sheet while the user is clicking on options. Later I will count all the values to see how many Excellents, Very Good, and forth.
