MS Office Forum / Excel / Worksheet Functions / March 2007Validation Rule anomaly
I have the following custom validation rule that checks for, and disallows, the inputting of a space or CHAR(160): =AND(ISERROR(FIND(" ",A2))=TRUE,ISERROR(FIND(CHAR(160),A2))=TRUE) However, if someone pastes some text containing a space, the validation rule doesn't trap it! Can anyone tell me why this occurs, and a possible fix to my validation rule? Thanks, Bob try: =AND(NOT(ISNUMBER(FIND(" ",A2))),NOT(ISNUMBER(FIND(CHAR(160),A2)))) HTH > I have the following custom validation rule that checks for, and disallows, > the inputting of a space or CHAR(160): [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > Thanks, > Bob |
