Hello
I want to create 2 columns, one that contains postcodes and one that has the corresponding wards of a particular borough.
I would like to create a link such that each time I select a postcode in the 'postcode' column, the 'ward' column to be updated automatically based on the postcode that I have chosen.
Please can you let me know how to achieve this?
Thank you in advance.

Hi Genta
Thanks for getting in touch. During your Excel Advanced course you will have covered the VLOOKUP function which is perfect for what you want to achieve.
You would have a list of postcodes in one column, and wards in the next. You can then use a VLOOKUP function to retrieve the relevant ward. Check your course manual for more details.
Kind regards
