Default symbols in cells

Hi,
I'm trying to use symbols I created in excel, using the drawing tool bar, as
the validation rule for some cells, so that i can set a drop down box and
pick from one of the symbols.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thx,
OO

Hi OO

I believe you'd have to turn the symbols into a font.

HTH. best wishes Harald

And as a font you would be limited to one color, just like fonts.
