Input box help needed
I can't seem to find my question from last Friday, so I'm posting it again
with more info. My excel spreadsheet has a list of all our policies on one worksheet. A second worksheet is a place where employees can request a file - some are in house other are in offsite storage. All the user has to do is click a button that runs a macro & a new blank row appears for them to enter their request. All they need to enter is their name & the policy # - Vlookup will show in other fields the complete info for the file & if it is in house or offsite. People here don't know excel, so I want this to be very simple for them - rather than have them enter data in a cell I want the input box to ask them to enter their name & click ok - what they enter will go in B4. The input box appears & asks the question, but I don't know how to get it to place the info in B4. Sheets("POLICY LIST").Select Range("B4").Select Application.Run _ "'HARCO POLICY LIST.xls'!SortByPolicyNo_Click" Sheets("REQUEST A FILE").Select Application.Goto Reference:="Start2" Range("A4").Select Selection.EntireRow.Insert Application.Goto Reference:="NewRecord" Selection.Copy Rows("4:4").Select Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteAll, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:= _ False, Transpose:=False Range("B4").Select 'Application.CutCopyMode = False InputBox prompt:="Enter you Name" |

Haste makes waste
Range("B4").inputBox("Enter you Name") should be Range("B4")=inputBox("Enter you Name") -- Don Guillett Microsoft MVP Excel SalesAid Software "Don Guillett" wrote in message ... Besides this it appears that your code could be greatly simplified. But hard to tell without knowing what's goin on. Range("B4").inputBox("Enter you Name") instead of Range("B4").Select 'Application.CutCopyMode = False InputBox prompt:="Enter you Name -- Don Guillett Microsoft MVP Excel SalesAid Software "Munchkin" wrote in message ...
