Default How do I add an item with comma in the list of data validation

First of all, you should give more details for us to answer.
Based on the little explanation you have provided, I think you can list all
your items in excel and add comma at the end of each item. Then use this
range as input range for your Data Validation.

Thanks.

Sorry about not being clear.
What I mean that I want to have data validation for a column with a list.
And as you know that list items needs to seperated with comma. My question is
that how can use a list item with comma. e.g. #,0, #.0 etc. In my case I want
my list to look like
#,0
#.0

Thanks

Enter your list in a range of cells.

When selecting source for list use that range rather than a comma-delimited
list.

Hi Gord

I tried to use the range but doesn't work in my case.
I am getting the list of values from the database and I am storing that in a
comma delimited string. I tried if can copy that string into range but it
doesn't work. If you or anyone has suggestions then please help me.

Thanks
