Select the cell, then from the top ribbon go to Data>Data Validation>Settings and select Dates.

Rockal,

that would work if the data i wish to enter is a date, however the data to be entered are whole numbers.

basically i have ten cells requiring data entry ( i.e number) if they are not entered by a certain date (deadline) I want the cells to be dis-abled and maybe an error message appear on screen as to why?

thx
