Conditional End Date in Data Validation Settings
Hi, I am trying to enter a formula in the Data Validation settings so that only days *between* Start Date DAY(A1) and *End Date DAY(A2)* if A2 is not blank or *End Date DAY(A1)* if A2 is blank are valid. I can enter the following formula for the End Date in the spreadsheet cells, but not in the Data Validation settings: =IF(ISBLANK(A2),DAY(A1),DAY(A2)) Any help, please? Thank you, Gos-C -- Gos-C ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gos-C's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=14518 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=537032 |

Conditional End Date in Data Validation Settings
Why not using the built in date validation, allowdate, between start date
=A1 and end date =A2 or do you want something else? -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom http://nwexcelsolutions.com "Gos-C" wrote in message ...

If you deselect "ignore blank" then you can't enter anything

Conditional End Date in Data Validation Settings
If the day in A1 is 24 and the day in A2 in 28, the keyer is allowed to enter 24, 25, 26, 27 or 28 in cell B5, for example. If the day in A1 is 31 and A2 is blank, then the keyer is allowed to enter 31 and nothing else. -- Gos-C ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gos-C's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=14518 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=537032 |

Maybe
=OR(AND(B5=DAY(A1),B5<=DAY(A2)),AND(B5=DAY(A1),A2 ="")) you need to deselect ignore blank -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom http://nwexcelsolutions.com "Gos-C" wrote in message ...
