Default Help with the basics. Starting out.

Ok, so I'm trying to make some objects and I realize that the things I'm
used to in Access do not carry over to Excel. I'm trying to make a user
input box. I run a function, and it pops up a box asking for the user
to input a password, masked by *'s. Masking it should be easy I assume.
Just set the properties of the text box to PasswordChar = *. That's not
the problem.

What I need help with is this.

A) Making the text box or control etc. Any way to get the user
inputting something.
B) Using this input to compare against other values in the module.

So, say I do this.

Dim passwordvalue as String

I want the text box to be passwordvalue, so that I can compare it later
like

If (passwordvalue < "aaaa") Then Beep Else AuthUser()

Hope that makes sense. Having a slow day at work, so I'll check back
later in the day and maybe work on this throughout the day, depending
on how much work comes in. Hooray for temping. O_o

Thanks in advance.

-Bob
