Default textbox value validation

In sheet1 I have a user form named 'frmEmployee' and also a 'sheet2'
which is the employees' database. One of the tasks is to enter data
for a new employee. The primary key is the ID number of each
employee. To avoid entering an existing employee's data, I want a
code to use in 'frmEmployee' . So, when I enter a number in the
textbox 'ID_Number' to lookup in 'sheet2' (where employee's data is)
and if this number exists to stop the data entry procedure and show
the message "this ID number exists etc...".
Thanks
