Hi
This should help you out.
put this code in the worksheet event area for the sheet you want.
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Dim DOB
Dim Name
DOB = InputBox("When were you born?")
Name = InputBox("What is your name?")
MsgBox ("Hello " & Name & " you were born on a " & Application.WorksheetFunction.Text(DOB, "DDDD"))
End Sub
Hope this helps
Jacob

You can add this to the rest of the code.
lets say you want to put the info in A1
range("A1").formular1c1 = DOB
or
sheet1.activate
range("A1").select
activecell.formulaR1C1 = DOB
