data form

Copper Contributor

Please advise if a drop-down box can be added to the data form view, not the excel table but the data form view.

Alternatively, how may I have the entry cells of the data form populated with drop down options please?

 

Many thanks

What exactly do you mean by "data form view"?

@Hans Vogelaar 

 

The form view of the table you are working on, when in a table which is set up as a form you select form and are permitted to enter all the details per row of your table.

 

It is this view I am referring to the view you have directly after pressing the form icon button.

Sadly, Microsoft hasn't upgraded the Data Form in ages, and it doesn't provide drop-downs.

Former Excel MVP John Walkenbach developed an enhanced data form with drop-downs. His website doesn't exist anymore, but I have attached the add-in to this reply.

Many thanks
