Default Data Validation - Allow List - In-cell Dropdown not showing up

Hi Earl
I know :-)
But believe me you would get some real flames in some German newsgroups
if you use something like
So I use this email just for newsgroups and apply several filters.

Microsoft recently came out with an advisory telling folks TO use

bollixed
email addresses in ng's because of the spam problem.

Hi Debra
this is one of the nice things with NG :-)
You have to constantly adapt your filters :-(

On a sidenote: though in english NG it's o.k. to use false email
addresses in most German NGs (like the German Excel NG) this is
considered against the rules (same is true for not using real

names)

If you didn't use your real email address in the public

newsgroups,
maybe you wouldn't get so much XSPAM!

Yes, I did. I was distracted by some XSPAM problems.

I think Dave meant,... "or remove the freeze panes"

You could use WindowSplit instead

Are you using windows|freeze panes?

Is your cell with Data|validation above that line?

If yes, move the cell or remove the data|validation.

It's a bug in xl97, fixed in xl2k.

This is in a MS Office 97 Excel Workbook, although I have

selected data
validation for a cell the in-cell dropdown is not showing up.

Of
course
some silly person would tell me that I don't have the In-cell

Dropdown
checkbox selected . . . got it smart guy. It is still not

working.

I will give you the current setup:

Cell L4 has the current data validation:
Allow: List
Source: =$B$54:$B$65
Ignore blank - selected
In-cell Dropdown - selected

Cells B54:B65
January
February
March . . . etc.

Anyone have any ideas?
