    Custom Data Validation

    I have 3 cell : f2 ,g2 and h2

    I want to input ONLY ONE of this 3 cells.(Only One is permited , but other two cells to be locked to input)
    Example: If G2 and/or H2 is filled with numbers, F2 must be prevented to input a number.
    Same condition is valid for G2 and H2 cells.

    How can it be solved with Custom Data Validation ( or simple macro)

    F2, G2, H2 cells going down to 4000th rows with same condition.

    Thanks in advance for any reply and help.

    Regards,
    turist

    Re: Custom Data Validation

    If I understand well, maybe with this custom data validation :

    Select F2:H2 and add this custom data validation : =COUNTA($F2:$H2)=1
    GC Excel

    Re: Custom Data Validation

    In row 2, set up the following Data Validation, Custom, rule in F2:

    Formula: copy to clipboard
    Please Login or Register  to view this content.


    Then copy that cell to the right to columns G and H.

    Then copy down for 4000 rows.
