In this video I explain how to include new items in Excel drop-down lists automatically. These are referred to as Dynamic Data Validation Lists because they automatically extend to include new rows/cells added to the source data range.

In this example we will use Excel Tables and named ranges to create the dynamic lists. The named range references a single Table column using structured references (Table Name[Column Name]). The named range includes all cells in the column and never needs to be updated or maintained.

Compatibility: This solution uses Excel Tables that were introduced in Excel 2007 for Windows. It will work in all versions of Excel including Excel 2007, 2010, 2016, 2019, Office 365 for Windows and Excel 2011, 2016, and beyond for Mac.
The Free List Search Add-in:
Unfortunately we can't directly search the drop down lists within Excel. So I created a free add-in called List Search that allows you to search any drop down list and input the value in the cell.
It's packed with additional time saving features. Click the link below to learn more and download List Search.
