Data Validation formulas
I am working on creating an order form for our customers. Items must be
ordered in multiples of the "box discount quantity". So far I have set data validation for this cell to require the value entered to be equal to or greater than the value shown in the box discount quantity cell. Is there a way to validate that this value is a multiple of the box discount quantity? So if the box discount quantity was 4, the user could only enter 4, 8, 12, etc. Thanks for any suggestions. -- Lele |

Lele,
=MOD(B1,4)=0 This will return TRUE if the value in B1 is a multiple of 4. -- Earl Kiosterud www.smokeylake.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- "Lele" wrote in message ...

Wow, that was easy. I have used the MOD function once before in the past,
just could not figure it out this time.
