    Post Insert Diagram When Value Selected In Drop List

    Helllo to everyone, Please accept my thanks in advance for any help you may be able to give on this.

    I am just starting to use drop down lists to select text which returns a number result in a hidden cell (so you can mulitply etc by it) but I cant figure out how to do this:

    I want a few drop down lists with various options in them and when they are selected it will update and change a schematic diagram on the same worksheet... it is for electrical wiring circuits so rather than create a new digram everytime i just want to select for example how many components from a list and then the diagram change to suit.

    Am I even using the right program to try to accomplish this and can it even be done?

    Many thanks (hope I have explained correctly)

    Matt

    You will probably need VBA code to do what you describe.

    There are ways of showing images based on a list, but I have a feeling it will not be suitable for your task.
