Hi All I am new to date validation. Please help me in completing one important excel sheet for my team. I have few dates (total around 300) in column A. I want user to enter date in column B that should not be less than first day of corresponding date month in column A.
Example:
A4 is 05-Apr-2019 B4 can not be less than 01-april-2019

Thanks in advance for your support.
Kind Regards
Kuldeep

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
Data validation for B4:

type: Date


Start date:
=DATE(year(A4),month(A4),1)

End date:
1/1/2999

Dear kokosek, thank you so much for you reply. I am able to apply this for one cell but I have more than 300 cells. All have to follow above formula. Please suggest how to apply this for entire column so that it will check corresponding cell value in column A?

Applied it into B4, then drag it down as long as needed. It should applied this validation for all copied range of B cells.
