    Indirect Data Validation

    Hi All

    Does anyone know how to make a drop down list using the Indirect formular, that will automatically select the first value in the indirect list?

    So lets say I have two lists...

    1st:
    Monkey
    Elephant
    etc

    My indirect list for monkey is:

    Banana
    Nuts
    etc


    When "Monkey" is select in the first list, I want the indirect list to automatically select(show) "Banana"

    Thanks for any help you can give

    Hi - Thank you for your reply

    But I'm not sure i've been clear

    In your attachment, columsn E and F is what i would like. But, when selecting Monkey, I would like the Indirect drop down to still be a drop down list, but to show the first value in the list - see attached, hope it makes more sense!
