Hi All,

I have set a simple Yes No data validationd drop down on my worksheet. However whenever I go to the cells with it in it I dont get the option to slect yes or no, the little dropdown arrow to the right appears for a split second but then disspears again. However if I hold the left mouse button in the cell the drop down arrow appears but once I let go it dissappears again.

I have used other workbooks in the same session and it works fine. Also if I copy the tab to a new workbook it also works fine. Have also found if I click on another window and go back to the document the drop down stays there, Very strange, Anyone any ideas with this?

Excel Facts

Copy a format multiple times
Select a formatted range. Double-click the Format Painter (left side of Home tab). You can paste formatting multiple times. Esc to stop
Perhaps that sheet is corrupt in some way.
You could copy the info into another worksheet,
Once you are sure it works, then delete that sheet...
