Anil:
Is there a way to format a number in a msgbox if it is: 1) preceded by
text, & 2) calculated in the code, not drawn from a worksheet? I want to
display a message similar to this example ("The sum is: ") with the number in
123,456 format. I am able to format the number alone using the following
code, but I can't figure out how to add "The sum is: " and retain the comma
formatting.
MsgBox prompt:=Format(expression:=totalvar, Format:="0,0")
Thank you for any suggestions!
Elizabeth

Yes use
format(sheets("Sheet3").Range("p2").Value,"#.##")
this will give two decimal places

MsgBox "The Average is" &
format(sheets("Sheet3").Range("p2").Value,"#.##")
