drop-down list
I've suddenly been told I need to maintain a large spreadsheet. The one
change I want to make is create a cell with a drop down list that doesn't allow any other values. I am so confused by all the options available. I did a =value("YES","NO","N/A") and this seems to drop down OK, but another value can be typed into the cell. I am probably overcomplicationg this issue, but how do I restrict to the above values? Is there a different method I should use? |
