I want the message box window to appear with the
the following lines.

The total profit is = Range.value(A1)

The total loss is= Range.value(B1)

Is it possible to combine both messages
in single statement.

John

Sub CombinedMessage()
MsgBox _
"The total profit is = " & Range("A1").Value & _
Chr(10) & _
"The total loss is = " & Range("B1").Value, , _
"Combined Profit and Loss"
End Sub

Regards

Trevor

John, try this

MsgBox "The total profit is " & [A1] _
& vbCrLf & "The total profit is " & [B1]

Hi John,

Something like this should work for you:

MsgBox prompt:="The total profit is: " & _
Format$(Range("A1").Value, "$#,##0.00") & _
vbLf & vbLf & "The total loss is: " & _
Format$(Range("B1").Value, "$#,##0.00"), _
Buttons:=vbInformation, Title:="Profit/Loss"

The "_" is to tell the compiler(?) the sentence continues on the next line.

If your cells are already formatted as currency, you could use the .text
property to return that same format.

Sub Demo()
Dim s As String
s = "Total Profit: " & _
[A1].Text & _
vbLf & vbLf & _
"Total Loss: " & _
[B1].Text

MsgBox s, vbInformation, "Profit / Loss"
End Sub
