Hi There,
I have a dropdown list that contains 250 names, I want a way to have a pop-up message when I select 3 specific names, but not to appear when I select any of the other names.
Any help greatfully appreciated
Regards
Paul

Hi Paul
I assume your list is selected via Data Validation.
I have 3 suggestions:
1) Just use an IF combine with a MATCH (or VLOOKUP) next to the selection to display a message in the cell.
2) Use Conditional Formatting to change the color of the cell (no message).
3) Use an Worksheet Event macro (pop-up message).
Whichever way you use, you will need a list of the 3 names for the checking.
Hope this helps.
Sunny
