    Restrict data entry based on another cell

    Hi guys

    I have a spreadsheet where I want to, for example, prevent a numerical entry into cell D7 if that entry would result in cell H7 becoming a negative value.
    Is this possible and if so how is it done??
    If it is possible and data entry is prevented, can the user then be prompted to enter a positive integer into cell C7 instead?

    Checked google but cannot find a solution. Its possible I'm not using the correct terms in the search box

    Thanks
