Usage of Data Validation with If Condition
I am using Data validation in a sheet, that is working well as per my
requirement. Now I want to use this with IF Condition. Mean if a cell has some particular value then Data Validation should work otherwise it shows blank value on the same column where I have applied data validation (LIST) |

Usage of Data Validation with If Condition
Hi,
Assume that when there is "try" (without double quotes) in cell C6, then a validation list should appear in cell D6. Elsewhere on the worksheet, enter the validation list entries, say in C12:C15. Select C12:C15 and assign it a name, try (the entry in cell C6). Now in cell D6, go to Data Validation List and enter =indirect(C6) OK The validation list entries would appear in cell D6 only when there is try in cell C6, else the validation drop down will show blanks. Hope this helps. -- Regards, Ashish Mathur Microsoft Excel MVP www.ashishmathur.com "Mujeeb ur Rehman, FBL-GRW-PK" m wrote in message ...

Upon your suggession I did the same. One think could not be understand. That
there is no usage of the NAME of the range (C12:C15) which we have assigned. WHY?

Hi,
There is. The entry in cell C6 I.e. try is used to name the contents of range C12:C15. By doing so, indirect(C6) becomes indirect(try) and try in turn holds the data in range C12:C15 -- Regards, Ashish Mathur Microsoft Excel MVP www.ashishmathur.com "Mujeeb ur Rehman, FBL-GRW-PK" m wrote in message ...
