    Drop down boxes triggering specific questions

    I am working on a service survey in excel. I have created a drop down box with different categories. I want the selection from the drop down boxes to have specific questions linked to them. So if from the drop down box I select Volunteer then the specific questions asked to a volunteer to appear. Is this possible?

    Thanks.

    Yes. Are the dropdown boxes embedded in the worksheet, or a user form? If in the sheet, investigate VLOOKUP or HLOOKUP formulas. If it's a user form, you'll need some coding.

    I have inserted the Combo Box from the Form Control section in the Developer tab. Will I be able to link the response chosen from the drop down box to a specific set of questions. It is my hope that if I select an option from the drop down box it will show specific questions regarding the selection made.
