I am fully versed in VBA but not certain if this is possible or not as I couldn't find anything while searching for the past 15 minutes.
I add a data validation list in the usual manner
startCell.Offset(1, 2).Select
With Selection.Validation
.Delete
.Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Operator:= _
xlBetween, Formula1:="=Categories"
.IgnoreBlank = True
.InCellDropdown = True
End With
But when the routine finishes none of the values are selected and therefore the cell is blank.
Is there a way to set the cell value when adding the data validation, ie a default value maybe the first item in the data validation list?
Try this:
With startCell.Offset(1, 2)
With .Validation
.Delete
.Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, _
Operator:= xlBetween, Formula1:="=Categories"
.IgnoreBlank = True
.InCellDropdown = True
End With
.Value = Range("Categories").Cells(1).Value
End With
