Macro prompts for a number to be used in this macro as a variable
 

Dear All,
could anyone help me to write a part of a macro which will prompt to
input a number. This number will be used in the same macro as a number
variable to specify a condition. I mean a user will be prompted to input the
lowest invoice value. This value can be for example 540.50. This figure
should be used later in the same macro as condition to delete rows having a
smaller value in an appropriate cell. I need a help to write the part of the
macro promting for the input and to assign the input figuer to a variable.
Thank you very much for your help.
Drahos.

Thanks Ardus and Bob for correcting my information - I had not come
across application.inputbox before - I will remember this in future as
it's kinda useful!!! You never stop learning!

It's most useful with Type:=8, that allows the user to select a range from
the worksheet.
