Validation above the Freeze Line
Hi All......
I have a cell to which I have appied Data Validation with a drop down box. The cell is located above the Window Freeze Line on my sheet. Although the "data Validation" part seems to work ok, the drop down arrow and window do not appear, unless I delete the Freeze Line. This is my first observance of this situation. Is it ordinary?.....Might I have some setting wrong?.....is there a workaround? Vaya con Dios, Chuck, CABGx3 |
This is a known bug in Excel 97

Hi Chuck,
Instead of a Freeze line, you could split the window, and the dropdown should work. Debra CLR wrote: Thanks Peo.......
