Hey guys.

I have a problem with data validation.
I'm trying to learn how to make custom validations, but It´s been hard, so I'm here to ask your help.

So, I need to turn this in to some data validation:

OR(F9="ESolteiro";AND(F9="ECasado";G9=1) -> allow between 0 and 3
AND(F9="ECasado";G9=2) -> alow between 0 and 6

This validation needs to be in the same cell (BI9)

I was aiming to have data validation by numbers, minumun 0, and maximum would depend on the formula..

Can this be done?

Thank you all
 

Excel Facts

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
Try this in Data Validation

=OR(AND(F9="ECasado",G9=2,B19>=0,B19<=6),AND(OR(F9="ESolteiro",AND(F9="ECasado",G9=1)),B19>=0,B19<=3))

Solution
Try this in Data Validation

=OR(AND(F9="ECasado",G9=2,B19>=0,B19<=6),AND(OR(F9="ESolteiro",AND(F9="ECasado",G9=1)),B19>=0,B19<=3))
This one is correct.

And it helped me to understand a little better how to make custom validations.

Thank you

I'm realy not good doing validations and the internet is not very good to help me in this regard.

I want to add a condition to that data validation formula.

=OR(AND(F9="ECasado",G9=2,B19>=0,B19<=6),AND(OR(F9="ESolteiro",AND(F9="ECasado",G9=1)),B19>=0,B19<=3))

This works as intended for what I was trying to acomplish, but I need another condition, added to this.

OR(I9=0;I9="")BI9=0)

Problem is that every way that I tred to incorporate this part in the "old" formula, it works in the oposite way...I want it to only allow 0, when I9 is 0 or empty.

Can anybody help me with this?

thank you

Dear Friend,

I encountered with a similar situation where I need to validate a Column based on the entry in the adjacent column.
I tried with the above formula of yours. I was partial success.

I need Column "N" to accept the value only 0 (zero) if the value in Column "P" = "ABC" or "XYZ". For other values in column P, column N should accept a value greater than 0.

ie., IF(OR(P5="ABC",P5="XYZ"),N5=0,N5<>0).

My first row is 5. and the column to be validated is N.

Any help will be much appreciated.
