ah,

This VBA routine will work. To add it to your worksheet, go to Tools -
Macro - Visual Basic Editor. In the left side structure of the Visual Basic
Editor, look for "ThisWorkbook". Double click on ThisWorkbook and macro
below to the code module. After you add the macro, hit File - Close. Then,
save your file.

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim Msg, Style, Title, Help, Ctxt, Response, MyString
Msg = "Did you fill in cell A2?"
Style = vbYesNo
Title = "Save Data Prompt"
Response = MsgBox(Msg, Style, Title)
If Response = vbYes Then
Exit Sub
Else
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
