I'm using data validation with dependent dropdowns (thank you Debra
Dalgleidh) where if I choose from a dropdown in one cell, the choices
available in the adjacent cell's dropdown automatically limit based on the
first cell's value.
OK. Now I need one step further.
Can I have that second cell's value get a default value based on what I
choose in the first cell?
For example, my first cell is country, the second is state.
I can choose in the first cell from a dropdown a list of countries, and if I
choose "USA" in this list, then the second cell limits its dropdown to the
states of the "USA". That part works.
But I also want it to be that when I make that first cell "USA", then I want
the second cell's value to automatically become the first value among the
list of states "Alabama", and of course, I can use the dropdown in the
second cell to change that.
Can anyone tell me how this can be done?
Thanks!
