    Hi Blacky1,

    You should use named ranges of cells to do your validation. See http://www.contextures.com/xlNames01.html for a start.

    Then read http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal01.html and the links to examples on this page.

    AND - Please click the green EDIT button below the above post and the "Go Advanced" and select the formulas in your post and click on the # icon to put code tags around them. It makes them a lot easier to read and use for us.
    One test is worth a thousand opinions.
