► This video is Part 2/2 in a series on Data Validation. If you watched Part 1 you'll have seen all things Data Validation - how to create List, restrict Max/Min values, Whole Numbers vs Decimals, Dates...and even how to customise amusing, or not so amusing, Error Alert messages for when you're colleagues make a mistake 🙄

► This video shows how we can create DYNAMIC Drop-down Lists, meaning the choices you have in the Drop-down List depend on the choice you picked in another Drop-down List! It's cool so check it out! 😃

► The context of the video is creating an Order Form for a spa business where first a Category of products is selected in Drop-down List 1, and then a Product from that Category is selected in Drop-down List 2. We utilise the CHOOSE function to create this, and then INDEX & MATCH to look up prices. Enjoy! 🎈
