How do I display text in a (popup) window?
I need to display some usage instructions when the user
clicks on a "how to use" button. I can map the button to a macro, but how do I make excel popup a window to display the desired text? I looked at pivottables and forms but neither look like the correct approach. Any thoughts? ~Rick |

Use the Msgbox on Button press
Example: msgbox "This is the direction" msgbox Range("d10").Value "Rick" wrote in message ... I need to display some usage instructions when the user clicks on a "how to use" button.

if you design a userform eith the text etc for your
instructions, then you can create a procedure to show it eg add a userform and call it frmInstructions in a standard module add this procedure PUBLIC SUB ShowInstructions() frmInstructions.Show END SUB assign thsi to your button or whatever.
