Default Beginner asking for advice

Ok, here's what I'm trying to do: I got the code to work but the Len(
function doesn't appear to work. I'm capturing user input via a
InputBox, and testing it to see if it's 6 digits in length. If i
isn't, another function will be called. However if it is 6 digits i
length, the function should insert the user input 6-digit value int
the range "TA". Here again is the code. Any input about why the len(
feature isn't working here would be great (I tested it by entering
digit #'s and it calls the other function as if it were <6. se
variable titled digits for this value.

Function manual_ta()

Dim newnumrng As Range 'user input
Dim digits As Integer 'digits used for capturing length of user entry

On Error Resume Next
Set newnumrng = Application.inputbox(prompt:="What number would yo
like to assign to this TA? Click OK after entering number.", Type:=1)

digits = Len(newnumrng)
If digits < 6 Then
Call question
Else

Range("TA").ClearContents 'clear the old TA #
newnumrng = ActiveCell.Value 'paste the value of the user input int
that cell if it is 6 digits in length


End I
