There is no "=" after th emsgbox command
eg

MsgBox = "hello world!"
results in the error that you had.

The code should be

MsgBox "hello world"

It isn't clear what you are trying to do, but try something like

MsgBox "Message",vbOkOnly,"Instructions"
' or
If MsgBox("Message",vbOkCancel,"Instructions") = vbOk Then
' user clicked OK
Else
' user clicked Cancel
End If
