Thank you for your help!

Hi Cog

a message box will do what you're after

e.g.

sub yourexistingcode()

dim i as long

i = msgbox("Are you sure?",vbyesno,"Be very, very

sure!")
if i = vbno then
msgbox "No data is to be

deleted!",vbOkOnly,"Don't Delete Data"
'this is optional, just put here as an example
exit sub
end if

---your delete code here

end sub


Cheers

Hi all, I can create a button with a macro that will
clear the data in a preselected range - using the macro
recorder. However, when the button is clicked, I would
like a message to appear that says, "Are You Sure" and
have a "Yes" button, and a "No" button for the user to
click on - to verify clear the range or return to what
they were doing. I think this is a macro inside a

macro
and I am not sure how to do this. Any HELP you can

offer
would be appreciated. Ex - when you start to close an
Excel file you've entered data into, and haven't saved
it, a message will appear asking if you really want to
save changes. How can I create such a message with
options yes and no?
