Coding for answer to this Thread
https://www.eileenslounge.com/viewto...p?f=30&t=31740

There are two main routines. They both are event routines reacting when the range A2 : A_ last data row is used.
A selection change routine will make the drop down list the first time that a cell is selected.
A value change routine, ( in the next post ) , makes a filtered range containing just columns having the selected value in that selected row

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
This makes a drop down list in column A when a cell is selected ( The range of ordered values needed to fill the drop down lists is made by this routine and it is placed in a worksheet with Name "DataSaladinValagationLists" )
This is briefly how this routine works:
It only does anything for a selection in the A column range.
It only does anything if there is not already a range of ordered values needed to fill the drop down list for the selected row
The range of data for that row is copied to the clipboard, excluding empty cells . The text held in the clipboard is retrieved.
A row in Excel is held in the clipboard as a string with a vbTab as separator, and this string also has a trailing vbCr & vbLf which we remove. http://www.eileenslounge.com/viewtop...=31395#p242941
A 1 Dimensional array is made from the retrieved string, strSptInDrpPlop() , and this is used to produce a simple string which only has unique cell values in it. This string is then used to replace the strSptInDrpPlop() contents with unique values
The unique values as well as a leading “-“ and trailing “Blank” are pasted out to the worksheet "DataSaladinValagationLists"

Code:

Sub test()
 Let Application.EnableEvents = True
 Call Worksheet_SelectionChange(Me.Range("A3"))
 Let Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
' =DataSaladinValagationLists!A2:A3



Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) ' for initial making of list for drop down

    If Worksheets("DataSaladinValagationLists").Range("A" & Target.Row & "").Value <> "" Then Exit Sub ' We already have made a drop down list - only does anything if there is not already a range of ordered values needed to fill the drop down list for the selected row

continued from last post.......

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
This reacts to changes of values in column A, for example when selecting a value from the drop down list
Initially a "Blank" selection is changed to "" , and if a "-" was given then the original range is restored

The rest of this routine is very similar to the routine here https://www.eileenslounge.com/viewto...245286#p245218 The difference is that we need here now to determine one set of column indices to use in a code line like pseudo the following to get the required filtered range
Output() = Index ( Cells , allRowIndicies , someColumnIndicies)
( The previous example at that link required all columns and 2 sets of some rows for two outputs based on a column having a Y or not )

Code:

 Let testieletter = CLDoWhile(3) ' should return "C"

Dim rest As Long 'Variable for what is "left over" after subtracting as many full 26's as possible
    Do
    '    Let rest = ((lclm - 1) Mod 26) 'Gives 0 to 25 for Column Number "Left over" 1 to 26. Better than ( lclm Mod 26 ) which gives 1 to 25 for clm 1 to 25 then 0 for 26
    '    Let FukOutChrWithDoWhile = Chr(65 + rest) & FukOutChrWithDoWhile 'Convert rest to Chr Number, initially with full number so the "units" (0-25), then number of 26's left over (if the number was so big to give any amount of 26's in it, then number of 26's in the 26's left over (if the number was so big to give any amount of 26 x 26's in it, Enit ?

Positioning of procedure separation Line in the Visual Basic Development Environment

These are some notes based on a discussion here.. http://www.eileenslounge.com/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=31756
Lisa Green had noticed something strange in how VBA divides procedures.....

It appears that in VBA, that is to say in the Visual Basic Development Environment Window , ( that window seen by hitting Alt+F11 from a spreadsheet ) , the convention has been set to separate procedures by a line extending across the code pane Window.
We see these as appearing as a series of underscores, __________________ , extending across the Visual Basic Development Environment Window

Code:

End Sub  '  The dividing line appears to us as a line of underscores ____

Usually, if we did write exactly this ' The dividing line appears to us as a line of underscores ____ ' , on that terminating line above , then we would not see those underscores, ____ , as they get hidden in the terminating line:
Hidden_____InDividingLine.JPG : https://imgur.com/7DyP9Om
Attachment 2142
The above screenshot shows the simplest case of routines with no “space” in between. In that simple case, the position of the dividing line is as expected in between the procedures. The situation is a bit more complicated if there is a separation in between procedures….

Effect of blank lines ( or ‘commented lines ) In Between
Between procedures we may add blank lines or ' comment lines. If this is done, it appears that the convention has been set to place the line somewhere between the procedures in this blank/ ‘comment range, and the lines above the line “belong” to the procedure above, that is to say the last or preeceding procedure, and the lines below the line “belong” to the procedure below, that is to say the next procedure, http://www.eileenslounge.com/viewtop...=31756#p245845

The documentation is not 100% clear on how the position of the dividing is determined , that is to say how the row on which it physically appears as a long series of underscores, __________________ is determined
There is no obvious logic to the way in which the dividing line can be positioned, that is to say , how to determine on which the dividing line appears as a long series of underscores, __________________

Some initial experiments suggest that is influenced by positioning of blank lines and any single underscores _

Line continuation / Break points : single underscores _
We note in passing , that single underscores are used in coding generally to allow us to divide a single line of code into several lines for ease of reading. For example:

Code:

' Without line breaks

' With Line breaks
  LastRow = _
     Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
  Range("A1:A" & LastRow) = Evaluate(Replace(Replace(  _
                            "IF(ISNUMBER(0+SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(" &  _
                            "A2:A#,"" "",""""),"","","""")),IF(LEFT(A1:A@,4)" & _
                            "=""2018"",TRIM(A1:A@&"" ""&A2:A#),"""")," &  _
                            "IF(LEFT(A1:A@,4)=""2018"",A1:A@,""""))", "#", _
                            LastRow + 1), "@", LastRow))
'  This is _
     acceptable in _
or out of a  procedure
End Sub
'  This is _
     acceptable in _
or out of a  procedure__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Further, we note that the line continuation , sometimes called a line break, _ , also applies to comments whether in a procedure or between procedures:
' This is _
acceptable in _
or out of a procedure

Determining position of horizontal line dividing procedures when blank or comment lines are between procedures
Sir Narios .
The documentation is not 100% clear on how the position of the dividing is determined , that is to say how the row on which it physically appears as a long series of underscores, __________________ is determined
There is no obvious logic to the way in which the dividing line can be positioned, that is to say , how to determine on which the dividing line appears as a long series of underscores, __________________
Some initial experiments suggest that is influenced by positioning of blank lines and any single underscores _
There appear to be 3 scenarios to consider in order to place the line somewhere in between, ( 4 if you consider the simple case of all lines containing comments or all lines being blank )

Scenario 0
' _(0)
If all lines are blank, or all lines are full with comments ( which exclude line continuations )
No single underscores in any line
The break is immediately after the Last/ upper procedure. (This is the same as the case for no separation between routines )

It seems to match  the first and Third " together as a  valid pair   but  the other  " in the middle of the  3 "s is also syntax OK, and does not error as    """     would  because  of the final 4th " which it syntaxly sees as a valid pair matched simultaneously as it does some similar check on the  first  and Third    as a concluding  string pair.  All is well except that  the second  "  is captured   within a   accepted  enclosing pair made up of the first and third  "   At the same time the 4th  "  is accepted as a final concluding   "   paired with the   second which it is  using but at the same time now isolated from.
