    Question Data Validation- email address format?

    I am building a form in excel and need to ensure that the person filling it out puts in their email address. I have not been able to figure out how to format the cell or daata validate it to ensure that what they type is in the email address format (i.e. [email protected]).

    Anyone?

    In data validation use under Custom

    =COUNTIF(A1,"*@*.*")
