seeking guidance phrasing my questions so I can use help files
- Thank you so much! I REALLY appreciate your help! Yeah, I wanted the drop down to be a single word vs the entire text I need to use. What I want to populate are entire paragraphs, so I wanted the drop down to be a simple association without having to read 20 different paragraphs. Do you know if that is even possible?
mpalone111777 You can pull other information from adjacent columns using the XLOOKUP function. Check out Help. You would add a column to the table the current validation is pulling the short string from to hold the long strings.
compatible @"When seeking assistance from help files, it's crucial to frame your questions in a clear and concise manner to maximize the chances of finding relevant information. Begin by identifying the specific issue or task you need help with. Then, break down your query into specific keywords or phrases that accurately describe the problem or topic. Avoid using vague language and instead opt for precise terms that are likely to appear in the help documentation. Additionally, consider providing context or background information to help the system understand your query better. By formulating your questions thoughtfully and precisely, you can streamline the process of navigating help files and quickly locate the information you require."
- Thank you!
