What is the Correct Data Type?
 

The code below keeps failing.
Dim i_pwd As Variant

i_pwd = InputBox("Please Enter Password to Unhide Sheet", "Unhide Sheet...")
If i_pwd = "" Then
Exit Sub
End If

Select Case LCase(i_pwd)
Case Is = "ryan72"
Worksheets("Ryan - Summary").Visible = True
Sheets("Ryan - Summary ").Select

A message pops up saying, 'Incorrect Password...'
I know the password is correct, I am not sure about the Data Type though.
Can someone please give me some guidance?

Thanks so much,

What is the Correct Data Type?
 

This Data Type appears to be working:
Dim i_pwd As String

I could swear that In tried it before and it didn't work. I guess I posted
my question too quickly; a little trial and error would have revealed a
solution in the same amount of time.


Thanks,

I don't think it was the declaration--although I would have use "as String",
too.

I don't think you typed in the correct password in the inputbox.

Or something else happened in the part of your code that you didn't share.

What is the Correct Data Type?
 

I'm fairly certain that I typed the correct password. I thought it had
something to do with the number, the 72-part. I tried it with another
password, such as 'showryan', and that worked, but the 'ryan72' didn't
work...at least at first. I thought the 72-part was not considered text so
it wouldn't work as a String. I don't know what the problem was, but it
appears to be resolved now. Thanks, for getting back to me Dave.
