I’m trying to create an attendance workbook with each sheet being the month, with multiple rows/column. I have created a drop down list to choose from on a different worksheet. What I need is the following; HVX and HVP can only be used if HV has been used in the cell before. If D is used then they are unable to enter anything else in the rest of the row. I’ve tried creating formulas for this but does not seem to work and also have tried Data Validation. My VBA is at beginner. If anyone could shed some light on how to accomplish this, I would appreciate this.:confused:
 

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
