Validation List Box Locked
Hey Guys...I need some help. I was in the middle of programming a workbook
to auto populate a cell with a validation list box data. It was working just fine and I was stepping through the code in debug mode. I don't know what happened, the code didn't change (at least I can't see where it might have changed). Now when I click on the cell to bring down the validation drop list it acts like the cell is locked and won't bring down the data. Although, the dropdown arrow shows up. I looked in the list and there are values that should show up, I just can't get to them. How can I fix this? -- Rone |

Validation List Box Locked
Just a guess.
Are you using xl97? Did you apply window|freeze panes? If yes to both of these, remove the freeze panes. It's been fixed in xl2k. Rone wrote: Hey Guys...I need some help.

Validation List Box Locked
Are you using a named list? Did the list name change, or is it spelled
incorrectly in the code? Rone wrote: Hey Guys...I need some help. I was in the middle of programming a workbook to auto populate a cell with a validation list box data.
