    Making 2 Dependent drop downs

    Sub Test()
    'drop down list
    Dim language As Variant
    Dim team As Variant

    language = [{"KA", "KT", "PJ", "TU"}] ' assign value
    'put in K2 array language
    With Range("K2").Validation
    .Delete
    .Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, _
    Operator:=xlBetween, Formula1:=Join(language, ",")
    End With

    team = [{"Team 1", "Team 2", "Team 3"}] ' assign value
    'put in J2 array team
    With Range("J2").Validation
    .Delete
    .Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, _
    Operator:=xlBetween, Formula1:=Join(team, ",")
    End With
    End Sub


    When I click on Team 1 it should KA, KT and when I click on Team 2 it should show PJ and when I click on Team TU only. Currently they are just 2 drop downs want to make them dependent drop downs.

    If team = "Team1" Then
    language= "KA,KT"
    ElseIf team = "Team2" Then
    language= "GU"
    ElseIf team = "Team3" Then
    language= "KA"
    Else
    End If

    The data for both the drop down should not come from excel sheet. I want to hard core the code with the drop down values and make them dependable drop downs.




    Any help is much appreciated.

    So depends what you choose in J2 dropdown list in K2 have to have other choices, right?

    Put into sheet code (not a standard module):
    Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
    Dim language As Variant
    If Not Intersect(Target, [J2]) Is Nothing Then
        Select Case Target
            Case "Team 1"
                language = [{"KA", "KT"}] ' assign value
            Case "Team 2"
                language = [{"GU"}] ' assign value
            Case "Team 3"
                language = [{"KA"}] ' assign value
        End Select
        With Range("K2").Validation
            .Delete
            .Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Operator:=xlBetween, Formula1:=Join(language, ",")
        End With
    End If
    End Sub
    not tested.
