Default Only allow specified strings in a range

How could write a formula to only allow certain words or phrases in a
cell. I'm using the VLOOKUP function, and if a user enters a value
that is not in my table, the function returns #N/A. When I try to
test a cell with #N/A, I get a debug in VB, or another #N/A with Excel
formulas.
