XL docs are your friend.
As far as I can tell 'in list' requires that the entered value exist
in the specified list of possiblities.  XL certainly supports lists
of the form
        A1:A10
I don't know if it supports A1:A10+3.  I'd certainly like to.  Once
the implicit iteration code goes in we should get that functionality
for free :-)  So what we really need is some sort of loop to see if
the target value is in the permissible set.
