Data Validation List Not Showing
Hello. I am hoping someone can assist me. In Excel 2003, I have a cell
where I had created a data validation list. I selected "List" in the Allow box, I checked the "In-cell dropdown" and I entered the values (3,5,7,10) directly into the "Source" box and I had created an input message that appeared when the cell was selected. Everything was working fine until this morning when I opened up the spreadsheet. Now when I select the cell I get the input message that I created but the down arrow button does not appear with the values. When I go to DataValidation "List" appears in the Allow box, the "In Cell Dropdown" box is checked and the values are in the source box, so it appears everthing is fine from a setup perspective. The is no protection on the workbook. Has anyone every encountered this before and found a solution? Thanks for your assitance. |

Thank you Debra. Unfortunately, none of these solutions worked. Any other
thoughts? Thanks.
