Validation ... Case Sensitive?
If the list is short, you could type upper case entries in the Data
Validation dialog Source box. That would validate for upper case entries in the cell. If the list is a range on the worksheet, the data validation isn't case sensitive. You could use programming to convert entries to upper case after they're typed. Ken wrote: Excel 2003 ...
