Searchable drop-down lists in beta version of desktop
- Mar 24, 2022
New functionality for Beta is deployed granularly. On first flight only some percent of beta users are covered. It could take from few days to few months before everyone on Beta receives it. In some cases functionality could be re-called if negative impact appears.
Kind of lottery. Actually the code for new functionality is within your build, the only it is not activated.
Hello? Sorry, can someone please tell me if I'm posting in the wrong place? Or what I could do to get some feedback on this?

- FredDFMar 23, 2023Copper ContributorI have Excel 365 (Version 2303 Build 16.0.16227.20168) and this feature is not available yet or I don’t know what I am missing to activate it because my dropdown lists are still not searchable. My update channel is set on Current (preview).Does someone know when public could use this feature ?

Sorry, have no idea. Afraid it's still on Beta.

Hi SergeiBaklan, is this specific to devices? Ie I have the exact same versions / builds on 3 different laptops which I use the same account for. However this function only work on 1 of the 3 devices.
