Default Checking cells for value

I have three data cells in my table that I need to check for data. If one of
the three cell has data in it, the other two can not be filled with anything,
somekind a pop up should be good too. I hope someone understand what I mean,
and can also help me out.

With data validation perhaps. Assuming the 3 cells in question are A1 - A3,
select them and then

Data|validation|Settings|Custom

and use the formula

=COUNTA(A$1:A$3)<=1

Default Checking cells for value

I'm afraid data validation doesn't do it, because I have it already in use.
Cell 1 has values 1-2, cell 2 has values 3-4 and cell 3 has value 5. If I
insert number into cell 2, then I would not be able to input any numbers into
cells 1 and 3, and so on.

Try this small worksheet event mcro:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim v As Variant
Set r = Range("A1:A3")
If Intersect(Target, r) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
v = Target.Value
Application.EnableEvents = False
r.Clear
Target.Value = v
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

If you enter a value in the range A1 thru A3, the other cells in that range
will be cleared.

Where did you place the code?

It is worksheet event code. Right-click on the sheet tab and "View Code".

Copy/paste into that sheet module.

Hi Gord,

Running the procedure returned the Compile error, "variable not
defined". So I dimmed r as range.

Then it worked fine.

I guess that because use Option Explicit

OK, I got this event macro to work, but now I have another problem. I need to
run the same macro to multiple others rows, with the same functions.
How/Where should I place the macro/code, do I have to type it for each row
separately or what?

If you have several of these triplets, how are they organized ??

We can alter/expand the code, but we need to know where the triplets are.
