Don't display empty values in Data Validation
Hello everyone.
I have attached the sheet where I have the problem I am about to present to you.
In cell "G1" I entered a "Data Validation" list of the range "$D$2:$D$500".
However, from cell "D9" to cell "D500" the value of these is empty text value (that is: ""); therefore, when I click on the arrow of the data validation drop-down menu, I also see the cells with the value "", and therefore empty (see blue line in the drop-down menu).
What can I do, without using Macros and VBA, to not include all those cells with value "" in the data validation?
Thank you!
Luciano

That's only to wait for the update. Excel for web ignores empty cells in data validation list, hope it comes to desktop version in a while.
