Roger

Thanks for your help, I have had a look again at this problem and realised
that if the depot use a 'Core' vehicle for a second run they need to be able
to report it!

Thanks again for your help

Hi Roger, thanks for the reply

This doesn't work for my situation because we cannot fix the registration,
it varies day to day on the manual area

I think I had better expain this in a different way

We have fixed runs to certain locations using fixed core vehicles on the
spreadsheet from cells A2 to A25 - this has been covered by the
xlDataVal03.html and I have set this up, the problem is in cells A30 to A40
we need to be able to manually enter a vehicle registration for an ad-hoc
run, but stop the user from entering a registration that is one of the fixed
ones in A2 - A25.
My question is how do I stop the users from entering a core registration
into the ad-hoc run cells and can I use the named range set up for the data
validation of cells A2-A25??
Confused? I know I have confused myself!!

My original problem is listedbelow

I am using Data Validation for selected vehicles on runs, but I need to stop
people assigning a duplicate registration for seperate runs.
The list for the data validation is in cells D91 to D120 and the entries are
made in cells H3 to H47

ALSO - on the same sheet I need to stop people using the vehicle
Registrations from the validation in cells H48 to H60 - can I use the same
validation list or do I have to set it up again

I have used all the info from http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal03.html to
sucessfully create a dropdown that doesn't show a duplicate entry, but i need
to allow the users to be able to manually enter a registration, but stop them
if it matches one of the entries within the data array - is this possible??
