Default Application.InputBox usage

I want the user to input a number. I want to handle the three possible
situations:
1. User enters number
2. User clicks Cancel
3. User enters nothing and clicks OK

I am having trouble with the third possibility, where the user enters nothing.

Below is some of the code I have now:

Sub GetNumber
Dim myNum As Variant
On Error Resume Next 'This line seems to have no effect.
myNum = Application.InputBox(Prompt:="Enter a number", Type:=1)
'If user enters nothing and clicks OK, Excel generates an info box about
'entering an incorrect formula. But it is NOT a VBA error so cannot be
trapped
'with normal methods.

If myNum = False Then
MsgBox ("Cancel was chosen. Macro will end.")
Exit Sub
Else
MsgBox (myNum)
End If
End Sub

Thank you,
Art
