    Home Expense Report

    Hello, I'm creating an excel sheet to record my home expenses. I would like to create a drop box that shows the categories: Home, Auto, Food, Bills.

    Once one of these groups is chosen in the drop box, I would like another drop box to show different categories.

    Example 1: From the first drop box, I pick "Home"
    A second drop box is now activated showing different categories for "Home": Mortgage Payment, Gas Bill, Electric Bill, etc....

    Example 2: From the first drop box, I pick "Auto"
    A second drop box is now activated showing different categories for "Auto": Car Payment, Gas, Car Maintenance, etc....

    Any thoughts on how I can do this?

    Thank you,
    Mike

    You could create dynamic named ranges, and then use these ranges in data validation to create your dropdown-menus.
