Formulating a report.

Hi,

 

I'm wondering what would be the best way to formulate the following document.

 

In simple terms i want a list of questions which will be answered via drop down yes/no

From this i want a new tab where there are more questions are supplied BASED on the answer to the sheet 1, these questions are found in the database

Then when these questions are answered i want this to produce a report, before i did this using an IF function, where if the answer was "yes" then i would input a few sentences for the report.

 

With the extra "filtering" of questions im unsure of how this is going to filter and create my report.

 

Can anyone help please?

 

Thanks

 

Bailey

 

  • Bailey1000 You might be able to do something with Dependent Data Validation, where your first selection automatically populates a second set of selections. But it would still be up to you to make the second selection.

     

    For a more automated approach, you you could use a VBA Change event to search for a certain sentence based on individual Yes responses, but you'd have to let us know where to look and what to look for.
