Default Vlookup

I'm just starting to play about with Excel VBA and have hit a rough
spot. I can't quite seem to grasp the proper coding for Vlookup.

The workbook contains 6 worksheets, one of which contains data on our
staff members. I'm trying to capture the name of the staff member
based on their staff number (we call it Case Org). Using the exit
event of a text box, I hope to get the staff member's name entered into
a cell.

Using Jeff Walkenbach's excellent "Dummies" guide, I can't seem to get
my code to work. I get any number of different errors as I have moved
things about. Any help would be appreciated.

As I read it, the following should work....

Private Sub txtCaseOrg_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
Dim CaseOrgNum as Variant
Dim CaseOrgName as String

CaseOrgNum = txtCaseOrg.Text
Sheets("CaseOrgs").Activate

CaseOrgName = Application.VLookup(CaseOrgNum, Range("A1:B20"), 2,
False)

MsgBox CaseOrgName
End Sub

Thanks!
