Default custom data validation on cells with data validation values

I am trying to write a custom data validation for cells with data
validation values: The cell content in column A is restricted to
values 1 and 2. The cell content in Column B is restricted to values
1, 2, 3, 4, 98, or 97. Value 97 in column B is only suppose to be used
when the value in Column A is 2, so I would like to have a warning
sign when a value other than 97 is entered in Column B when the value
in Column A is 2. I input this formula in the data validation custom
field: =AND(A1=2,B2<97) and tested it by entering 2 in column A and
4 in Column B and no warning message appeared. Is there another
formula that should be used when attempting a custom data validation
on cells with data validation values.

Thank you,

Athena
