Hi
use the worksheet_change event for this. See
http://www.cpearson.com/excel/events.htm

In your case use something like
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
If Application.Intersect(Target, Range("A1")) Is Nothing Then _
Exit Sub
If Target.Cells.Count 1 Then Exit Sub

With Target
If .Value = "" Then
msgbox "Empty cell entered"
elseif .value="abc" then
msgbox "abc entered"
End If
End With
End Sub
