Default Collect User Input

Can VB programing within Excel, take the user's Input.

Can a macro run and get the Font Name and Font Size? If so, how is
this done?
Thanks


Why do you need to prompt the user for this? Is their some reason why
the user can't just select these from the toolbar control[s]?

Otherwise, you'd need to use the VB6 Common Dialog control, which would
have to be distributed with your VBA project. A VB6 developer license
is required to use/distribute the control in your projects.

Perhaps you can google to see if someone has written a pure VB font
picker that you can modify to work in a VBA userform. Or maybe there's
a DLL available!
