Are you trying to look at all the rows 2:58 or just row 2 and row 58?

I'm gonna guess that you want all the rows:

Dim cell As Range
dim myRow as long

with sheets("x340")
For Each cell In .Range("a2:a58").cells 'just define the row
myrow = cell.row
if trim(.cells(myrow,"B")) = "" _
or trim(.cells(myrow,"K")) = "" _
or trim(.cells(myrow,"L")) = "" then
MsgBox "Please make sure that column B, K & L are filled on this row"
Application.Goto cell
Cancel = True
Exit For
End If
Next cell
end with

But you could use "L2,L58" if that's what you wanted.

As a user, I think I'd rather receive that immediate feedback that the worksheet
formula gives me--rather than waiting until I was saving the workbook.

sorry, this is the code I am reffering to: and I would like this code to work
for all worksheets: X340, X342n and X642e,
thnaks,

Dim cell As Range
For Each cell In Sheets("X340").Range("L2,L58")
If Len(Trim(cell.Text)) = 0 Then
MsgBox "Please make sure that column B, K & L are filled"
Application.Goto cell
Cancel = True
Exit For
End If
Next cell

This is a formula that sits in a cell.

You'll have to put the formula in a cell in each worksheet.

hi, I used this code and it worked, but I would like to be able to apply this
code to all my worksheets. The name of my worksheets a X340, X342n and
X642e? How can I modify this code so it applies to all my worksheets?

thanks,
p.d. thanks for the other tip!

I would use a helper column that put a warning in big red letters:

=if(and(counta(b2:f2)0,counta(b2:f2)<5)),"Please fix this row!","")

If there's anything in B2:F2, but they're not all filled in (B:F is 5 columns),
then put that warning message.

I have seen the making cells mandatory to fill in comment and it worked, but
I need the same only if a previous cell has been filled. I have various
columns not all of them will be filled but if a cell is filled the complete
row will have to be filled, how do I do this, if one cell is filled then the
complete row should be filled?
thanks,
leonardo
