Error in Formula in List Validation Settings

Hello:

 

I have writen this formula in list validation settings. Two field exists in right section (insert columns).

The system detects formula as not valid.

=AND(LEN([Estat])>9,LEN([Title])>9)

 

I have read manuals and the syntax seems to be ok. If i try formula with single column it works perfect. I understand that in validation list formula many fields can be used, or not? 

Thanks in advance.

    francescjp Make sure you are using correct display names of the columns in formula.

     

    Sometimes comma(,) does not work in formula (it is based on language or regional settings on your site). So in that case use semicolon(;) instead of comma(,) like:

     

    =AND(LEN([Estat])>9;LEN([Title])>9)
