    Validation Type Dependant on Validated List.

    I'm using excel as a script builder for an automated system. We have power supplies and relays. In Column B I have a list of possible Actions. In Column C I have paramaters for that action.


    IE:

    Right now, I have Power Supply Voltage being a list 0...10 (VIA Dependant Validated Lists.) But now I want to allow Decimals. However, for the Relays I only want Open/Close.

    Therefore, the Relays would have a "List" Validation type, whereas the Power Supplies have a "Decimal" value type.

    In addition, I want the range of the Voltage to be between 0 and 10, and the range of the frequency to be between 1 and 10,000.

    How can this be done by using a custom validation type? Can it be done without VB?

    Where there is a will there are many ways.
