Multiplan: “Not a Valid Option” Using Intersection Operator PSS ID Number: Q25584 Article last modified on 03-07-1990 PSS database name: D_MPlan

3.00 3.01 3.02

MS-DOS

Problem:

When entering a formula that involves the use of the intersection operator (this is a space in Multiplan) using the following steps, the message “Not a valid option” occurs:


 * 1) Enter the cell references for the first range of cells.
 * 2) Enter the space (the intersection operator).
 * 3) Try to use the ARROW keys to move to the first cell in the second range so as to not have to enter the cell references directly (the message appears at this point).

Response:

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Multiplan Versions 3.00, 3.01, and 3.02. This problem was corrected in Multiplan Version 3.04.
