Prohibit manual entry via Drop Down
DV with LIST should not allow entry of data other than that which in the List.
It does not however prevent people (copy/)pasting data which is not in the list. "Sean" wrote: I have a Data Validation drop down, is it possible to prohibit the user manually typing in a value other than those displayed within the Drop down? Thanks |
