    Re: Entry Validation??

    No...I pasted it as: =AND(ISERR(LEFT(A1)+0),MID(A1,2,1)="-",ISNUMBER(RIGHT(A1,7)+0),LEN(A1)=9)

    Within the custom formula box.

    Re: Entry Validation??

    It worked fine in the example......I believe I might have tracked it down......the formula for each cell references A1 only......could it be the formula is only looking at cell A1 for validation? I selected the entire row and applied the formula. If this is the case....how can the formula be applied to the entire row....for each cell within that row easily?
