Skippy,

The following bit of code should do what you want, if you don't want it on
two lines, just remove the CHR(13) part from the formula.

Boxdate = Date
Boxtime = Time()
boxtext = Boxdate & Chr(13) & Boxtime
MsgBox (boxtext)

am learning VB / Macros ... need a MsgBox which contains both the current

the syntax?

e.g. I was able to figure out MsgBox (Time) and MsgBox (Date)
but can not figure out how to get BOTH in the MsgBox
