I have an excel file with the following headers. Product|Version|Status|Date|Executive|Company Name|Contact| Note: All the rows under the headers can be repeated multiple times. Filter is an obvious method to get data fulfilling a criteria. But I would like to avoid use of "Filter" Is there any method wherein I can create a combo box on "Company Name" and get a list of all corresponding entries under the "Company Name" thus selected from the combo box. Further, is it possible to get only a unique list in the combo box but on selection, display all the rows and columns with the matching "Company Name"? This, is possible, would have to be done in a new sheet. Its ok with me as long as the combo box and display properties gets updated every time I update the list in the main worksheet. By the way, I am using Excel 2007.
