Show the Auditing Toolbar (View-Toolbars)
One of the buttons there is "circle invalid data"

Have fun!

How would Excel know the difference between valid or invalid?

First you must identify what "invalid data" means.

Then you use any number of functions to look over the sheet to find the inavlid
data.

Can you give us a hint?
