Found in the gem (write_xlsx) how to make the cell be a dropdown list but receive one value .... What I want is how to make the cell a dropdown list with the ability to choose more than one value
I want to apply the colours in a list to an array of cells. The list contains the items that are made available in a data validation drop-down for each cell. This example should show what I mean. I have manually set the backgrounds of the cells to match the key but I want to do this automatically, so that when a cell is assigned from a drop-down it gets the colour from the key table.
Can this be done with conditional formatting (bearing in mind that the key list will get new members/colours)?
No. But the whole range (table and dropdown cells) can be formatted with CF formula rules (one per colour).
I've got an spreadsheet with hundreds of problems listed out that map to a smaller number of solutions. I want to use this data to generate a drop down that selects the problem from a data range, and then next to it, another cell that populates the solution from one row over.
Example:
Column A Column B
Issue 1 Solution 1
Issue 2 Solution 4
Issue 3 Solution 5
Issue 4 Solution 1
Issue 5 Solution 1
Issue 6 Solution 3
Issue 7 Solution 2
If I want to create two cells where the first one is a drop down list (A1:A7), how can I make the second cell populate using a static column (B), but with a dynamic row number based off the first cell. So if someone chooses Issue 6 from the dropdown (A6) the second cell will know to populate Solution 3 (B6)?

To do this, you need two steps:
1) For the first cell where you'll have the dropdown option, click on Data Validation command (under the Data ) In the Settings menu in the dialogue box, click on "list" and set the Source to the Column A cells (without the header). This will make these the options in the drop down menu
2) For the second cell where you'll have the solution automatically change depending on the first cell, you'll need to use the vlookup function. The syntax looks like this: VLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,col_index_num,range_lookup)
In this case, the lookup_value will be the first cell, the table array will be your original table (without the headers), the col_index_num will be 2 (which means it will take the answer from the second column), and range_lookup will be FALSE (which means it will look for an exact match)
If you want more information about either one of these steps, here's the official help sections for Excel 2010: Create a drop down link , Vlookup
Is it possible to fill a cell with data from another cell based off the content of a different cell? I have a drop down menu in one cell, and when I select something from that menu, I would like the cell next to it to search a database on that sheet that the drop down is based off of. it has a second row with different values I would like to appear in the next column. I think about it, and it should seem easy, but I'm having troubles explaining it.
You could use VLOOKUP() to search the list based on the dropdown cell value. Ref
I am using a listview to store and show data.
How can i hide and show a column in listview?
Dont tell me to set the column width to 0 please!!!!
In the Delphi TListView you can't hide columns in vsReport view style. Your only option is to delete the column when you need to hide it, and create it again when you need to show it.
This is yet another example of why virtual list views are much more desirable than non-virtual list views. With a virtual list view you can insert new columns without having to iterate across all items in the list and re-populate their sub items.
