What I am trying to do is have cells that accept numerical values only. If an alpha value is entered I want a message to appear stating that only numeric values can be entered.

Can someone please help me with this.,

Phil

You can use data validation for this. You can select ether whole numbers or to allow decimals and the min and max values. You can also customize the message that is displayed when a non allowed value is entered.
