Learn how to create drop down lists in Excel in this step-by-step tutorial. By using drop-down lists, you can help people work more efficiently in worksheets by allowing people to pick an item from a list that you create.
In this video, I show you how to create a pre-defined drop-down list and a drop-down list based on another table. Additionally, I show you how to show an input message to provide users with a tool tip. Lastly, I also show how to display a warning message when users enter an incorrect value.
As full-disclosure, I work at Microsoft as a full-time employee.

@@guytaylor8496 unfortunately you can't do it out of the box. There are third party plug ins that give you that capability.

Great tutorial. No fluff, no annoying music, crystal clear speaking. You need to make a tutorial on making tutorials
Great job explaining the drop down list. How can you use the drop down list to bring in additional columns from the list. Example: The drop down list contain various fruits. When you select a fruit, the related unit price of that fruit also populates the table. Then, you can enter the quantity and use a formula to get the extended price. Similar to an invoice.
Very clear and concise, applied to my worksheet immediately! Thanks

Thank you, this was very useful for me and I am just a beginner 👍
Thank you. Most helpful.
Thank you. Helpful. Just used it to create my first drop down menu.
Excellent Tutorial Kevin, saved me a lot of time and headaches! The only issue that I am having is when I add additional content to the tables they are not showing in the drop downs even though they are showing as part of the table, the data validation is limiting to my original table. I am and absolute novice so if anyone reads this and knows what I am doing wrong I would greatly appreciate a hand!
Excellent video. it was easy to follow!
You are the best! Thanks ! Anyway you could please show us how to create “consequential (dependent) drop down lists”? Thanks!
thank you Kevin! This video is very clear!

Thanks Kevin, this is very helpful
Honestly i thought it was more complicated than this!!! I've always avoided working with excel (or doing stuff manually with no formulas etc) coz some instructions or videos are so vague or poorly made respectively. Ill be checking out later "pivot tables" if you have a video on that. I am sooo subcribing to learn more tricks. PS: This is the longest comment i've ever made on YT.

Hi. Man, you help so many people with your tutorials. Thank you very much. When I create a table and tell the dropdown menu to get info from the table, it doesn't update automatically when I add new items to the table. Am I doing anything wrong? thank you

Thanks for the explanation. I want to be show how to make a dropdown box from a dropped down box and repeated many times. I want to use this for family tree starting with grand papa up to future great grand children. Thank you.
You a genius! Thank you so much, easy peasy.
Good tutorials, Kindly add how the drop down can generate a report straight away.
Fantastic tutorial, however, mines is not updating dynamically. I do have my list as a table with header in a separate sheet, but it won’t update if I add data to the table.

@@frankdewit3445 Yes, you’ll create that list as a table (ctrl + T). Give table a meaningful name. Now in data validation use =INDIRECT("CategoryList") where categorylist is your table name. Hope this helps.
Thank you so much for your sharing..
great tip! Thank You.
Please would you do one on graphs? Excellent video.
