Default Data Validation - Allow List - In-cell Dropdown not showing up

Microsoft recently came out with an advisory telling folks TO use bollixed
email addresses in ng's because of the spam problem.

Hi Debra
this is one of the nice things with NG :-)
You have to constantly adapt your filters :-(

On a sidenote: though in english NG it's o.k. to use false email
addresses in most German NGs (like the German Excel NG) this is
considered against the rules (same is true for not using real names)

If you didn't use your real email address in the public newsgroups,
maybe you wouldn't get so much XSPAM!

Yes, I did. I was distracted by some XSPAM problems.

You could use WindowSplit instead

Are you using windows|freeze panes?

Is your cell with Data|validation above that line?

If yes, move the cell or remove the data|validation.

It's a bug in xl97, fixed in xl2k.

This is in a MS Office 97 Excel Workbook, although I have

selected data
validation for a cell the in-cell dropdown is not showing up. Of

course
some silly person would tell me that I don't have the In-cell

Dropdown
checkbox selected . . . got it smart guy. It is still not

working.

I will give you the current setup:

Cell L4 has the current data validation:
Allow: List
Source: =$B$54:$B$65
Ignore blank - selected
In-cell Dropdown - selected

Cells B54:B65
January
February
March . . . etc.

Anyone have any ideas?
