I have a spreadsheet that creates a named file using data entered into a field. For a hypothetical example, people can put their favorite car in A2 and, when the macro is run, it will SAVE AS the spreadsheet and name it with the value of A2. Problem is, some folks don't follow instructions and do things like HONDA / INSIGHT, or else something using symbols that are not valid for file names. Bloody slashes!!
I know there are lots of ways to use Data Validation to prevent certain entries, but is there any way to prevent certain symbols? If not, can anyone help me with an Event Handler that would evaluate the data for certain symbols once the data is entered?
Many thanks for any help I can get...
