I am wondering if it is at all possible (and if so, how) to CREATE your own error message in Microsoft Excel. Basicaly, I am wanting to create an error message if two cells' figures do not match up. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Let's say you wanted G1 and H18 to match. Go to G1, click Data -> Validation. On the 'Settings' tab, change 'Allow' to "Custom", and in the 'Formula' box below simply type in: =G1=H18 Click over to the Error Alert tab and set up your own custom error message and choose whether you want your message to "Stop" the user from entering that data or just warn/inform them. Do the same for cell H18. Select it, do those steps, but for the formula change it to: =H18=G1. Using VBA macros you could further enhance things, but might be more complicated than you need. Let us know if that's something you're interested in. Updated formulas, my bad.

I tried this out with the Data -> Validation tool. However, upon doing this and entering in dummy data, no error messages are appearing! The two cell's figures are different but no error apeears... My second query is: will this error alert appear when, say
error message to an Excel Spreadsheet In the previous part, you saw how to add drop down lists to your Excel spreadsheets. In this part, we'll display an error message for our users. If you haven't already done so, you need to do the previous tutorial first. Data Validation - restricting what data can go in a cell You can also restrict what goes in to a cell on your spreadsheet, and display an error message for your users. We'll do this with our Comments column. If users enter too much text, we'll let them know by displaying a suitable error box. Try the following: Highlight the E column on your spreadsheet (the Comments column) From the Data Tools panel, click Data Validation to bring up the dialogue box again From the Allow list, select Text length: When you select Text Length from the list, you'll see three new areas appear: What we're trying to do is to restrict the amount of text a user can input into any one cell on the Comments column. We'll restrict the text to between 0 and 25 characters. The first of the new areas (Data) is exactly what we want - Between. For the minimum textbox, just type a 0 (zero) in there. For the maximum box, type 25. Your dialogue box should then look like this: To add an error message, click the Error Alert tab at the top of the Data Validation dialogue box: Make sure there is a tick in the box for "Show error alert after invalid data is entered". You have three different Styles to choose from for your error message. Click the drop down list to see them: In the Title textbox, type some text for the title of your error message. Now click inside the error message field and type some text for the main body of your error message. This will tell the user what he or she did wrong: Click OK on the Data Validation dialogue box when you're done. To test out your new error message, click inside any cell in your Comments Column. Type a message longer than 25 characters. Press the enter key on your keyboard and you should see your error message appear: As you can see, the user is prompted to Retry or Cancel. But our title (Too many characters) is at the top, our Stop symbol is to the left, and our Error message is displaying nicely! Hiding Spreadsheet Data in Excel 2007 to 2016 The data that went in to our lists doesn't need to be on show for all to see. You can hide this text quite easily.
