Tracey,
It also looks like the line:
newnumrng = ActiveCell.Value
should be:
ActiveCell.Value = newnumrng
The way it is now you are assigning the Activecell value to newnum, but your
comment says the opposite.
hth,

From earlier question, here's what I'm trying to do: the Len() function
doesn't appear to work. I'm capturing user input via an InputBox, and
testing it to see if it's 6 digits in length. If it isn't, another
function will be called. However if it is 6 digits in length, the
function should insert the user input 6-digit value into 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 6 digit #'s
and it calls the other function as if it were <6. see 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 you
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 into
that cell if it is 6 digits in length
End If
