Hi Guys
I need a little hand with find a solution to a data validation issue. I checked the search and the usual help sites such as contextures.com but haven't managed to find an answer.
Basically I am creating a booking system, when a class has reached it's limit I want it not to appear in my validation dropdown. The limit for arguments sake is 15,
Excel 2007
At the moment I use a standard OFFSET so I can add and delete classes and keep my list neat, but for this example I do not want sheet users to be able to book in more than the limit to one particular class so when it reaches 15 it will no longer be available as a choice. So in the above example only classes 1, 3 & 4 would be options.
I'm going to be sharing this workbook if that makes any difference to the possible solutions. And restrictions at work mean VBA is not an option, apparently.
Thanks for looking, TIA for any solutions
Regards
Dave
