I have a workbook that when data is entered, it needs to be entered in a correct manner. Is there a way to ensure that this can occur?
Example 1. When entering names, it is preferred that surnmanes be entered before initials.
DB Smith should be Smith DB
DB & AS Smith should be Smith DB & AS
DB & AS Smith & Son should be Smith DB & AS & Son
But just to complicate the matter there will be times when entering business names that a business name may appear to be a surname
PK Enterprises
AGB Farms
Is it therefore possible for an options box ( with a suggested alternative)to appear as against the option of a error message?
I realise you can find pre existing names by referring to those already in use, but what about if the name was new?
Similarily one could adapt this to help when addresses are also being entered where the range of possibilities of incorrect data entry that occur when operators enter, say;
P.O. Box rather than PO Box, or M.S or M/S rather than MS for mail service.
Then there's the issue of entering property names, with some operators entering the name of the property enclosed in single quotation marks, when all that is required is just the name.
