Inputting from message box
 

Hey guys,

Simple questions.

Im trying to get a imput box come up when you open the worksheet that asks
for your name. Then it takes what you inputted and puts it into a the cell E8
in a sheet named Summary.

I have this so far:

Dim Message1, Title1, MyValues
Message = "Please enter your name (First and Last)"
Title = "Name" '<--Change
MyValues = InputBox(Message, Title)

Thanks!

Try even simpler:

Sub Auto_open()
Sheets("Summary").Range("E8").Value = _
InputBox("Yo name:", "Important")
End Sub

HTH. Best wishes Harald

Dim Message1 As String, Title1 As String
Dim MyValues As String
Message = "Please enter your name (First and Last)"
Title = "Name" '<--Change
MyValues = InputBox(Message, Title)
If MyValues < vbNullString Then _
Sheets("Summary").Range("E8").Value = MyValues

That is efficient, but if you want to use the value again, you still need a
variable.
