I recently created a drop down list with the source data in a seperate tab.
I highlighted all cells in the range and defined a name; the drop down list
works. However, it keeps truncating the last data row from the list. Any
suggestions? Thanks in advance.
 
Did you use a dynamic range name?

If you did, then I'd bet that you have a mistake in the formula you used

or

Your formula depends on the count of items in that column (or range) and you
have an empty cell in that range.

If this doesn't help, maybe you could explain what truncate means here.
 
What do you mean by 'truncate'?
You don't see it even if you scroll down?

Make sure your NAME covers all the cells in the range.
 
1. Named range doesn't contain the last cell in the list.
2. Named range has had an item added to it without redefining range.
3. If you are using a formula for dynamically naming this range, there is an
error in the formula. Is data in last cell of a different type from that
above, for instance?

The obvious question...............

Are you sure that row is included in the named range?

Otherwise, I cannot replicate the problem in 2003 or 2007

What I meant by "truncating" was the fact that I entered 42 rows of data into
the accepted range but only 41 rows of data would actually show in the drop
down list. However, I think I solved my own question anyways, thanks for the
replies.
