You would need a macro that is triggered by the save command. Such a macro
would check what you want checked, and if the conditions are not met the
save command would be cancelled. The macro can also display a message box
telling the user the error of his ways and what he must do before he can
save the file.
The macro would look like this:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As
Boolean)
If Sheets("This").Range("A1")="" Or Sheets("That").Range("C5")="" Then
Cancel = True
MsgBox "Such and such."
End If
Post back if this fits with what you want and you need more. This macro
must be placed in the workbook module. To do that, right-click on the Excel
icon immediately left of the word "File" in the menu across the top of your
sheet, select View Code, and paste this macro in that module. Change the
sheet name(s) and cell addresses as needed. HTH Otto

Is there a way to easily have a cell (or cells) require input, or the
file cannot be saved? I have a simple formula setup at the moment that
simply warns if no entry is detected, however, that doesn't stop end
users from simply submitting the form anyway....
