Hi Hilary, What i think is instead of just validation list box you should pick combobox of form control and then link its itm index with a cell that give you ur expected output. so please follow the below mentioned steps.
Goto developer tab->Insert->Select Combobox Control->Draw it on ur sheet->right click on the combobox->select format control->select control tab->Choose the range of ur data->in cell link sect any of the cell on ur sheet. and click ok thats all. Done (: enjoy regards Prince On Thursday, January 10, 2013 6:07:33 PM UTC+5:30, hilary lomotey wrote: > > Thanks Viper i thinks its a good idea, i can do some modification and see > what happens but its a great step for me, thanks to every one who assisted. > thanks so much > > On Thu, Jan 10, 2013 at 12:30 PM, The Viper <vipe...@gmail.com<javascript:> > > wrote: > >> [image: Boxbe] <https://www.boxbe.com/overview> This message is >> eligible for Automatic Cleanup!
