    But no require output.

    How to use data validation to restrict the data entry as:
    Numbers between: 0:25
    Letters: Ab
    Letters: L

    In short user has to enter any value within this range and no other value is allowed in this range.

    Any help will be highly appreciated.

    Thanking you in anticipation.
    Sincerely,

    mso3

    Hi,

    I think what you need to do is select cell C5, go to data validation -> Custom -> formula and use:

    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Then if you copy cell c5 all the way down to cell c50 the logic should change with it. So the data validation for C50 will be:

    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Note: this will accept, 0 to 25, AB, Ab, ab, aB, L and l. If uppercase and lowercase matter to you, feel free to ask for more help.

    Have fun!

    Hi Sktneer,
    Glad to see you after a long time with a perfect solution. It's working absolutely fine as per my requirement.

    Hi Alex,
    The solution suggested by Sktneer is perfect because it didn't allow any value exact than the requirement including upper/lower case.
    No matter yours is also fine.

    Thank you to both of you for your kind perfect solution.

    Have a nice time.
