Default Validating a date field


I need Excel to validate that an entry in a date field is correct.
Specifically, if someone includes the day of the week in an entry
(e.g., Wed 02/16/05) I need Excel to display "You entered an incorrect
date format. Enter the date as mm/dd/yy and do not include the day of
the week."

Can anyone tell me how to do that?
