    Data Validation Drop Down Query

    Hi All
    Would anyone know if it is possible to extend the size of the list presented when using the data validation drop down? At present, it seems to default to 8 choices (even though there is a scroll bar) but I was wondering could the list automatically display, say 20 choices?

    Many Thanks
    Shytott

    Hi

    ion the validation list add the range of the list you require
    list = (A1:A100)
    If the solution helped please donate to RSPCA

    No I'm afraid not. You would need to use an alternative method (ie a control) - http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal10.html
