Default Validate user inputted name.

I can't find an answer to this.

Any ideas how I can validate the user input from an inputbox to insure that
the name entered is a valid name, ie Name only contaings letters, numbers,
periods, and underscore, and begins with a letter, and is not a cell
reference type string.

I'm hoping I don't have to re-invent this vaildation routine and can use
something built in.

Thanks,
John
