Default Excel VBA programmatic validation problem

I know I've seen that before in the NG. This is what I use to do searches
the
http://www.rondebruin.nl/Google.htm. Try it out. With "columns numbered"
as search criteria, I got this one that might be useful to you:
http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=e...as_uauthors%3D
(All of that is supposed to be one line of URL - I don't know how to make
them smaller. You might have to take out some line breaks to make it work.)

If that works, then step
through it with the macro recorder and go from there.


That's it!
I didn't realise you could do that, how bloomin' useful!

Right, the problem is entirely because I'm trying to do things on a
sheet other than Sheet1. As soon as I do it all entirely on sheet1 I'm
flying - it appears the validation has to be added with the cells on
Sheet1 selected, otherwise it doesn't work.

Another problem was obscuring this one though: My columns are numbered
rather than lettered, and I can't refer to cells as A1:B4, I have to
use R1C1:R4C2.
What on earth is going on in this case?

Thanks very much for your help here.

Justin
