Texts 1. Accept only text entries

The ISTEXT Function is categorized under Excel


Information functions. The function will test if a given
value is a text string or not. If the given value is text, it
will return TRUE, or if not, it will return FALSE.

Numbers 2. Accept only number entries

The Excel ISNUMBER function checks if a cell in Excel

example, if the given value is a text, date, or time, it
will return FALSE.

function that helps to indicate if a given number is odd

The ISEVEN Function will return TRUE if the number is


even or FALSE if the number is not even, or odd.

1. Set data validation on cells D4:D15 to restrict
users to only typing in a whole number between 0
and 26. If the user enters invalid data, Excel will
display a special alert explaining the error that
choose numbers between 0 and 26.

2. In column F we want to choose the department


name from a list to avoid typing errors.
Set a data validation list for cells F4:F15, using the
range name that is already set up on the DV
Range tab called Department Names.
When you click in a cell in column F, you should
now be able to choose a department name from
the drop-down list.
