Need Help On Excel Combo Box
(OP)
I need to know if there is a way to connect multiple drop down list containing different data to a single combo box based on a calculated numeric value of a cell.
EXAMPLE:
If cell K6 contains the calculated numeric value of 19, I want the combo box drop down list to contain data values of the numeric value 19 in cell K6 value to pick from.
If cell K6 contains the calculated numeric value of 7, I want the same combo box drop down list to contain a different set of data values to pick from.
Thanks For Any Help

You want the combo box drop down list to differ, depending upon the value in some cell?
For instance, you might have two lists: one called "ListFor19" and the other called "ListFor7". If the value in the cell is 19, you want list "ListFor19" to appear in the combo box; if the value in the cell is 7, you want list "ListFor7" to appear in the combo box.
Let me know if this is what you want and I think I can show you how to do it! You may also want to consider just using Excel's data validation drop-down list instead of a combo box?

I now need to select the wall thickness of the selected pipe size by using the index number of the first combo box. I now need another combo box that has the functionality of presenting different sets of data in the drop down menu based on the numerical index value of the first combo box.
The way I currently have the pipe data on the second sheet is index number 1 is in A1, pipe size is in B1, pipe O.D. in C1, pipe schedule D1, and C1 for the associated wall thickness for D1. This continues across the spreadsheet for all the pipe schedules and wall thichness associated with the specific size of pipe defined in B1. The pipe data continues to row 19.
