I need a code that will give me a warning box when anything is entered in a column when something is already in that column. If you look at the example below 'HP' is entered in F9 so if I made another entry in say F16 it would look at the name already entered in column B and a pop up would say 'James Cox is already booked off that day press ok to continue'. The example is just a small piece of the file and it would stretch down several 1000 rows.

I would need it to do the same if there are several entries in the column already too i.e 'Tom Smith, Lee Westwood, Curtis Stigers are already booked off that day press ok to continue' etc etc...

Is this possible? I hope so!!! Thanks for your help.

I should try resizing the Range "Rng" from "31", to the number of columns you require to add data to.
Are you still Getting the Rogue returns ??

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
I dont understand, yours works fine, mine is near enough the same but it keeps coming up with MP and BH
