I have a dropdown list in my Excel sheet that contains a series of months (Jan - 2012, Feb - 2012 etc..)
I have the drop down working perfectly but say on another sheet. I want the text Today the month is <insert drop down text> how would I go about achieving that?
1) Click on that drop down cell
2) Type a name for that cell into the NAME BOX to the left of the formula bar. Let’s name this cell MyDate
3) on your other sheet, use this formula:
=”The month is ” & MyDate
