Extend the range of dependent drop down list with only one click

If you apply the Dynamic Drop-down list feature of Kutools for Excel to create 2-5 level dependent drop down list in a specific range of cells (for example: G2:I5), sometimes, you may want to extend the range of created dependent drop down list to the range of G6:I10 as below screenshot shown. Instead of creating the dependent drop down list once again, the Expand Dynamic Drop-down list Range feature can help you to expand the original dependent drop down list range with only one click.
