I think we have covered everything except workbook corruption.
But have a browse through Debra's site to see if anything applies to you.

Hi Gord,
Thank you for responding so quickly again. I've checked that all is selected
and it was but still running under compatability mode as an .xls file the
down arrows refuse to show. I've even cleared formats and data validation and
re-entered it to no avail. Most frustrating!

Hi Gord,
Many thanks for responding to my enquiry. Yes I do have "In cell dropdown"
selected and I do appreiciate that the dropdown arrow is only visable when
the cell is selected. I can't however find Tools menu on any of the
following Tabs I have at the top of the screen; namely Home,Insert,Page
Layout,Formulas,Data, Review,View,Developer and Add-Ins. Can you advise
specifically where I can find this "Tools" menu please?. Additionally I did
try saving the file as an .XLSX files rather than a.XLS file in Excel 97-2003
format and running it in compatability mode. Whaddya Know! in XLSX format
the dropdown arrows re-appear but this might be because I've not got
something set or checked in this version that is set or checked in the 97-03
version maybe???! Any ideas would greatly be appreiciated. Many thanks,

Do you have "In-cell dropdown" selected?
Do you have ToolsOptionsViewObjects set for "Show All"?

I have a range of cells that I have formatted using Data Validation to have
their contents limited to selection from a drop Down list. However the down
arrow at the right hand side of each cell is missing or not displayed. What
could be wrong please?
