Drop down missing in cells with validations!
This is a tricky one. I got a sheet with many cells, each validating against
one of many possible Names (ranges defined in another sheet). After working for a while, all drop downs suddenly disappear. Of course the "In-Cell dropdown" remains active. Moreover, I had been circling invalid cells with activesheet.circleinvalid. Even though I switched to activesheet.clearcirles, I always get a circle on the activecell (it's gone once I switch to a different cell, which in turn gets circled). The only time I could get the drop downs back was when deleting a lot of rows and saving the workbook. Is it possible that I'm facing a restriction on the amount of cells with validations?? |

Sounds more like a screen redraw or memory problem.
Try saving periodically - it might help. Make sure the screen is zoomed to 100% -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Alex" wrote: This is a tricky one.
