Hi, I am have been dumped with some work that is beyond my knowledge
and would wecome any help.

I want to use validation to not allow data entry if another cell is
blank. I have various routes but no joy. This will be the first of
many questions I feel. Hope to hear from you soon.

Regards

Rugby Man

Just use Data Validation with a custom type, and a formula of say

=C1<>""

Uncheck the Ignore blank box.
