    Thanks for the reply. However Data Validation is no good in my case because I want to hide information (mainly legends) about formulas so I need to be able to input Mathematical symbols etc and Date Validation does not let me do that. Is there another way?

    I don't know why data validation does not let you do that.

    Just open new excel workbook and test it out, see if you can get mathematical symbols and signs into the Input message box.
