(In XL 2003)
I have a cell that is validated to only contain any of the numbers 1 through
5.
What I want is to have another cell that will only accepts a range of
numbers based on the value in cell 1:
A
1<can only contain 1,2,3,4 or 5>
3<if A1=1, then this cell can only contain 0.01 through 0.20; if A1= 2, this
cell can only contain 0.21 through 0.40 etc.etc.>
I have tried putting a vlookup in the cell validation formula but this
doesn't seem to want to work.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
TIA

Try a custom Validation formula of:
=AND(A3>((A1*2)-1)/10,A3<(A1*2)/10)
