Data validation won't clear

Hi
I have data validation in a column range. One cell in this range has the data validation arrows always visible. The arrow positions are slightly off and when I select this cell a second set of arrows appears. I have tried clearing data validation for that cell, closing excel and re-booting, copying the wks to another workbook - nothing works - is this worksheet corrupted?

Thanks for the help.

Not sure. Could you have another dropdown or combo box on your sheet? Try Edit > Goto > Special, select Objects and see if anything is selected.

Hi

I actually solved the problem by saving the file as xml and reopening and saving again as xls.
