Find out how to create a dependent drop down list in Excel based on a Tabular data set. Instead of having the contents of each drop-down beside each other as we had in the previous tutorial, we now have the contents of each drop-down right below one another. To distinguish which category belongs to which parent, the parent is listed right beside the category. This provides us with a table that has two columns. One for the parent and the other for the content.

We would like to come up with a dynamic formula so that when the user selects a category from the first drop-down (i.e. the parent list), Excel figures out which part of the tabular data-set to include in the 2nd drop-down. This means we need a dynamic formula that always shows the part of the table that has a match for the parent category.
