Using a validation list drop down box with keyboard only
Good afternoon!
I have applied data validation to a cell - the user can pick from a range of values within a range of cells. Normally, you'd have to click on the drop down arrow to see the list - is there any way, with the cell selected, to dispay the drop down list via a keyboard combination, instead? Thanks in advance Pete |

Paul,
Sooooooooooo simple when you know how! The question is, do I really WANT to make it easier for my wife to check where all the household "miscellaneous" money is going..? :) Thanks VERY much.
