I want to use the same validation list for an enite column without having to
validate each row individually. Is this possible? |

Hi!
Copy the cell with the validation. Select the range of cells where you want to copy the validation to. EditPaste SpecialValidation Biff "me2jr2" wrote in message ... I want to use the same validation list for an enite column without having to validate each row individually. Is this possible? |

Yes, select the range you want to validate and refer to the active cell in
the formula (if you select from A1 to A100 starting with A` it will be the active cell and if you use (as an example) =A1="a" that way if will change according for other cells -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom (No private emails please) "me2jr2" wrote in message ...

Thanks, but I tried that and what it pastes to subsequent cells is only
information stored in the cells on the same row as I am validating. My list has 5 entries, therefore on the 6,7,8 and so on rows there are no items in the list. "Biff" wrote: Hi!

Biff, I'm sorry! I swear that I had tried that and it didn't work. I just
tried it again and Vola! It's there and works! What a time saver! I think I must not have checked the correct item when choosing items in the validation box. Thanks so much!
