Default inputbox function


Hi,

I am really new to VBA programming and was seeking some help and thi
seems like a great place to do it.

Here is the code that i have at the moment:


Public Sub AddNames()

Dim FirstName As String
FirstName = InputBox("What is your firstname?", "First Name")
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("sheet1").Range("B2").Va lue
_\"=FirstName_"

End Sub


My aim is to get an input box to prompt a user to input their firs
name and after the user does so, excel will input the user's name int
the particular cell. I think my problem is what i've underline
("=FirstName")... i don't know what i should put after the value to ge
it to do what i need it to do. Maybe i've made other mistakes too?

Any help would be great. Thanks
