Range.Validation Questions
Hi
I have an applicaton that takes a selection of cells which should be a list of numbers. I use the SpecialCells function to ensure that i have a range which consists of only numbers and no text strings. I also want to ensure that all the strings are of a minimum length. I know there is a range validation method and a textLength option that goes with it but im not sure if it will do what i want it to. I cant find much info on how to use it other than the 1 example on MSDN. Anyone got any clues? Thanks BC |
Range.Validation Questions
Hi Ben
one option, you could cycle through the range you've selected checking the length in each cell and writing the "non-compliant" cells to a message box e.g. Dim strmsg strmsg = "Non Compliant cells" For Each cell In myrange 'use the range you've already selected If Len(cell.Value) < 10 Then 'or whatever length you're after strmsg = strmsg & "; " & cell.Address End If Next MsgBox strmsg Hope this helps Cheers JulieD "Ben Crinion" wrote in message ...
