I have a list of Items that I have a Macro setup to grab info on but I want the user to be able to select a subset of these items based on some characteristics.
Right now I have a "flag" in Column A that I've just hard-coded in as a 0 or 1. Each item has a Color, Size, Type. The list of items is around 700 right now, and there can be anywhere from 10-15 unique values in each of these categories, Color, Size, Types. I was hoping I could have the flag in column A be dependent on what the user selects. My thoughts were to have Checkboxes for the three categories. Essentially it would be, do you want to select a block of items based on color and you'd check the colors of the items you wanted. Maybe you check Red, Blue and Brown. If those were the only boxes checked, every item that was Red, Blue or Brown would have a 1 in Column A and the rest would have 0's. Now say the user wants to select by Color and Size. So they check the boxes of Orange, Green, Large and X-Large. Now only the Orange Large, Orange X-Large, Green Large, Green X-Large items have a 1 in Column A and the rest have 0's. So there are going to be some Orange and Green plans that have 0's.
What is my best approach for dynamically changing the values in Column A?
