Default Input box help needed

Range("B4") = Inputbox("Enter Your Name")

I can't seem to find my question from last Friday, so I'm posting it again
with more info. My excel spreadsheet has a list of all our policies on
one
worksheet. A second worksheet is a place where employees can request a
file
- some are in house other are in offsite storage. All the user has to do
is
click a button that runs a macro & a new blank row appears for them to
enter
their request. All they need to enter is their name & the policy # -
Vlookup
will show in other fields the complete info for the file & if it is in
house
or offsite.

People here don't know excel, so I want this to be very simple for them -
rather than have them enter data in a cell I want the input box to ask
them
to enter their name & click ok - what they enter will go in B4. The input
box appears & asks the question, but I don't know how to get it to place
the
info in B4.



Sheets("POLICY LIST").Select
Range("B4").Select
Application.Run _
"'HARCO POLICY LIST.xls'!SortByPolicyNo_Click"
Sheets("REQUEST A FILE").Select
Application.Goto Reference:="Start2"
Range("A4").Select
Selection.EntireRow.Insert
Application.Goto Reference:="NewRecord"
Selection.Copy
Rows("4:4").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteAll, Operation:=xlNone,
SkipBlanks:= _
False, Transpose:=False
Range("B4").Select
'Application.CutCopyMode = False
InputBox prompt:="Enter you Name"
