Default Data Validation On A Cells With Data From A Different Spreadsheet

One caveat: In Data|validation|settings you have to precede the list source
with "=", so if your range name is "data'" you have to input "=data"
(without quotes)

You can reference another sheet!

Just add a name to that sheet range, InsertNameDefine..., and use the
name rather than the range directly.

Hi All,

I know that in Excel it says that you cannot reference a diffetent
worksheet
when it comes to data validation, however is there any macro that I could
use
or is there a formular or is there any other way ?



Your help would be greatly appreaciated.



Thanks in advance
