well thats the problem, the user can go on creating rows and rows of data.
but in the end when he/she saves, the columns for those rows should have
some data.

Put this in the ThisWorkbook module

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As
Boolean)
If Application.CountA(Sheets("sheet9").Range("c2,d2,h 2,j2")) < 4 Then
Cancel = True
MsgBox "Not finished"
End If
End Sub
