you extract the value from Sheet3 at p2 cell, it should sheets("Sheet3").Range("p2").Value try this MsgBox "The Average is" & sheets("Sheet3").Range("p2").Value -- anilsolipuram ------------------------------------------------------------------------ anilsolipuram's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=16271 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=382585 |

Thank you Anil it is working. How can I restrict decimal places, it is giving me all 14 decimal places. Is there a format syntax?

Yes use format(sheets("Sheet3").Range("p2").Value,"#.##") this will give two decimal places MsgBox "The Average is" & format(sheets("Sheet3").Range("p2").Value,"#.##") -- anilsolipuram ------------------------------------------------------------------------ anilsolipuram's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=16271 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=382585 |

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!
