Hello,
I am having a problem getting Data Validation to work in conjunction with a VLookup formula. Both items work great separately; however, when I try to get Data Validation to work on VLookup data - invalid condtions are allowed. I have a spreadsheet that is the result of an instrument data dump (worksheet 1). I then want to selectively take out bits of this data so that it can be evaluated in a logical manner (worksheet 2). I want to have Data Validation evaluate 2 data points to ensure that the first value is larger than the second. If I type in the data points everything is fine, but I want the data points to be input automatically by VLookup. I have checked the internet and not been able to find anything that has helped so far. Excel is setup for automatic workbook calculation.
Thanks in advance!
