Can a custom data validation formula be written for a cell to only allow a
user to enter a maximum of 8 characters (<=8) AND begin with the letters AD?

Thanks!
 
Hi David, thanks for your response.

I am trying to do this with Data/Validation/(Allow)Custom. I entered this
formula in the formula field there, but it is not working. If I try entering
text that is in compliance with the formula, I get the Stop error message.
