    Seeing which cells have Data Validation rules

    Does anyone know of a way of showing which cells in a worksheet have Data Validation rules applied? Thanks.

    Select entire range
    Edit>Goto Special Button
    then Data Validation option button > OK
    this will select data validation cells only

    Thanks Sadath31. I cannot find the function to which you refer. I have hunted around but cannot find anything that looks like an 'Edit-Goto Special button'. I am using Excel 2010.
    I would appreciate further clarification.

    Hi marketshare,
    In the "home" ribbon > "find Select"> "Goto"
    click "special" button and click "Data Validation"
    If the solution helped please donate to RSPCA
