Hi everyone,

I have a button that my users can push that will display a message box that
is linked to a cell with a percent value in it. My problem is that when the
user presses the button the msgbox say:

The value of column x is: .158765224

I want this to say, " The value of column x is 15.8%" but i don't know how
to declare my variable properly to do so.

Any help would be appreciated.

You can do it in the message box response:

MsgBox "The value of column x is " & Format(LinkedCell, "00.0%")

If you only want whole percentage then make it "00%". Substitute the actual
cell reference for LinkedCell.

MsgBox Format(Range("B1").Value, "0.0%")
