Checking data with test limits

Hi Guys,

Is there any way I can check each cell value in a column against the column's test limits and decide if the test has passed or failed? For example if a column has 10 rows of data and if 5 out of the 10 rows fail the test limits for that column, I would like to see a message in a box that says column 'X' failed.

Thanks.

Why not use the formula editor as explained to you by Lou? Then you wont have to worry about writing code?
