How/when would you like this macro to run?
Are they going to be calling it/running it manually, or would you like it to somehow be automated?
If automated, we need to know what should trigger it to run (when it should run).

Hi Joe,
The macro runs when they press a button so normal macro is fine thanks

Try this:

Sub MyCheckingMacro()

    Dim cell As Range
    Dim msg As String
    
    msg = "Missing entries from cells: "
    
    For Each cell In Range("AH52:AH252")
        If cell <> "" And cell.Offset(0, -1) = "" Then
            msg = msg & cell.Offset(0, -1).Address(0, 0) & ","
        End If
    Next cell
    
    If Len(msg) > 28 Then
        MsgBox Left(msg, Len(msg) - 1), vbOKOnly, "MISSING ENTRIES!"
    Else
        MsgBox "No missing entries", vbOKOnly, "DATA VERIFIED!"
    End If
    
End Sub

Hi Joe,
Worked first time perfectly,
Took out the veriffied part but handy to have it there as I'm bound to use this again and again.

Thanks
