    Formula for custom data validation

    If I wanted to restrict a range of cells to only the values 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10 and 11, what would be the formula to do that. I tried a few things and couldn't get it to work.

    Also, is there any way to search out cells that have data validation applied to them?

    Could you try using a list instead? Create a table with your values, name that table, and in Data Validation, select List, then reference your table range. This will prevent users from being able to enter other data than what is in the list into that cell.
