I look for solutions that avoid VB.
Have you tried Excel's built-in Data validation ? Its's in the Data menu. Not difficult to understand. It checks data entered in a cell to see if it's conforms to your criteria. Not sure that it will work for what you need. Andy |

Better to use conditional formatting to highlight the errant cells, and put
something more descriptive than "wrong" in the indicator cell. Or put lots of controls on your message box. I'd hate to have it pop up three times, as I entered the first three of the four values included in the validation (and I'd hate the programmer who inflicted it on me). - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Claudio Silva" wrote in message oups.com...

Selct F1:H1 and FormatCFFormula is:
=SUM($F1:$H1)<$E1 Format to a nice bright color. Copy the formatting down as far as you wish. Or swap around if you want E to be colored.

You still want a message box? You don't mind inconveniencing the users? Use
conditional formatting to highlight the cells that don't add up, and trust the users to notice and fix them. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Claudio Silva" wrote in message ps.com...

Hey Gord! Many thanks!
Now It works.. and like Jon Peltier said, it´s better a conditional formatting than a msgBox... Now it´s done! Regards from Brasil! Claudio Marques Jon Peltier wrote: You still want a message box?
