I have a sheet in which i want to validate the values that are filled
in:  possible must be the numbers from 0 to 100 and the value  "absent".

How do i do this?

One way ..

Assume inputs would be made in col A, A1 down

Select col A

Click Data > Validation
Select Custom under "Allow"
Put as the "Formula:"
=OR(AND(A1>=0,A1<=100),A1="absent")
Click OK

Test it out ..
