Data validation screen size
 

Step one - from the menu I selected data validation

Determined the settings for the data validation
Determined the title and the input message

Did not like the format of the input message - when the cursor is on the
cell that was just work on.

Therefore my question is: Can one control the size of the pop-up window
(length and height) created by using data validation input message?

You can't control the size of the data validation input message. If you
can use programming, you could use a textbox to display the input
message. There's an example he

Under Data Validation, look for 'Input Message in Textbox'

I don't think so.
