302/01/2023AT-0021300

504/01/2023AT-0045000
605/01/2023AT-00567788
706/01/2023AT-0069000
807/01/2023AT-0075666

1009/01/2023AT-009123

what I want when I write the cells using comma, colon in first input box like this
IN1.PNG

after click ok I will show the second inputbox to write date like this

417/01/2024AT-0031200
504/01/2023AT-0045000
617/01/2024AT-00567788
706/01/2023AT-0069000

908/01/2023AT-0081222
1017/01/2024AT-009123
1110/01/2023AT-010678
date

I have this code I would add some line to adapt with my requirement with the same condition as in original code but for two inputboxes
VBA Code:
Sub enter_date()
Dim result As String
    result = InputBox("Enter the cells please", "cells Confirmation")
    If StrPtr(result) = 0 Then
        MsgBox ("User canceled!")
    ElseIf result = vbNullString Then
        MsgBox ("User didn't enter anything!")
    Else
        MsgBox ("User entered " & result)
    End If
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
Try:
VBA Code:
Sub RepeatDates()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim sDate As String, sRange As String, v As Variant, i As Long
    sRange = InputBox("Please enter the range separated by commas.")
    If sRange = "" Then Exit Sub
    v = Split(sRange, ",")
    sDate = InputBox("Please enter the date to repeat.")
    If sDate = "" Then Exit Sub
    For i = LBound(v) To UBound(v)
        Range(v(i)) = sDate
    Next i
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
