  1. Vipul says:

    Pivot Table will involve manual intervention; hence I prefer to use the 'countif remove duplicate trick' along with 'text sorting formula trick; then using the offset with len to name the final range for validation.

  2. Rich says:

    if using the pivot table, set the sort to Ascending, so the list in the validation cell comes back alphabetically.

  3. Kieranz says:

    Hui: Brillant neat idea.
    Vipul: I am intrigued by what you are saying. Please is it possible to show us how it can be done, because as u said Hui's method requires user intervention.
    Thks to PHD and all

  4. sam says:

    Table names dont work directly inside Data validation.
    You will have to define a name and point it to the table name and then use the name inside validation
    Eg MyClient : Refers to :=Table1[Client]
    And then in the list validation say = MyClient

  5. Vipul says:

    Kieranz,
    Pls download the sample here http://cid-e98339d969073094.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/.Public/data-validation-unsorted-list-example.xls
    Off course there are many other ways of doing the same and integrating the formulae in multiple columns into one.

  6. Vipul says:

    Pls refer to column FGHI in that file. Cell G4 is where my validation is.

  7. Kieranz says:

    Vipul:
    Many thks, will study it latter.
