Myriam

Validation
 
Hi,
I'm validating a cell, using Name range, I have 5 items and a blank. I
don't know if I'm trying to do something that Excel won't allow.

I need users to select from the given items, without being able to override
those items, but at the same time I need a blank for users to add a new item
if necessary. Is this possible?
As always, any light you can give me is highly appreciated.
Thanks.
Regards,

CLR

Select the cell you wish to validate..........

Data Validation SettingsTab Allow: select LIST

should be....

Data Validation SettingsTab Allow: select LIST Source: select your
list plus one blank cell OK
