    Displaying a Warning Message

    Hi,
    I’m looking for a way to trigger a warning message whenever a cell contains a certain text. I use Data Validation for in cases where a text is missing (for example if for a cell i set A-B as acceptable and I enter C i get a warning message). What i need is that if i put in D, G or Y, i will get a warning box. I alrwady have Data Validation for hat cell, so as i know i can’t put another one. Any other way to do this?

    Thx
