DATA Validation (Ignore Blanks)
You don't enter a blank, you clear the cell of it's content
There is no data validation that will stop you from clearing the contents of
a cell
That would take an event macro but of course macros can be bypassed when you
open the workbook. You can't really "idiot proof" a workbook

Peo,
It's working halfway. The formula works for space, but not for blank.
When a valid number is entered, "Deleted" and then hit the return key,
cell
A1 is back to "blank".
Do you have another solution? Thanks in advance.

use
=AND(A1=0,ISNUMBER(A1))

I have a cell A1 which needs to be populated with a number of 0 or
greater
and it cannot be left blank.
I used DATA validation with the "Custom" option and populated the
"Formula"
with =A1=0.
I also unclicked the Ignore Blank.
Somehow the validation works for zero or greater but I can still enter
"blank".
Where have I gone in err?
Thanks.
