I am trying to validate against a secondary set of criteria... here is my
situation:
My validation data is in a table BA2:CD43... main categories across the top
row, and sub-categories entered in columns directly beneath each associated
main category (some categories have up to 30 sub-categories). Elsewhere, I
want to enter cats & sub-cats in two columns, validated against the sub-cat,
based on what is chosen for the main cat. Validating the main cat is no
problem, but I can't figure out how to validate against the columns of
sub-cats... I can't write a formula with 30 or more nested IF statements.
Any suggestions???
I am running Office 2003. Please let me know if you need any further info.
Thanks!
