Updating drop down based on previous cell

Submitted by harish on 7 December, 2012 - 09:22

Question and Answer

Hi all,

I have struck with updating drop down based on previous cell value.

Here is my problem..
I have 2 sheets.. 1st sheet looks as..

Locale OS Version Size
US win7 10 30
US mac 10.7 10.1.4 45
Japan win7 10 78
Japan mac 10.7 10.1.4 90
Japan mac 10.8 11 80

In the second sheet the same columns..

If we give Locale as US then all available OS should be updated in a drop down in OS column and if we select an OS from that list..all available versions for that particular Locale and OS should be updated as a dropdown in version column..there if i select a version then size should be auto populated based on previous three cell values..

Its an emergency..pls help..thanks in advance..
