How do I use the .font.color property on a message or input box? Or am I going about it in the wrong way? I just want 2 boxes, one that appears when the user makes an error, and another prior to a save, to have its text in red. I am using excel '97.

Thanks as always,

Mark

Format cells as currency
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+4 to format cells as currency. (Shift 4 is the $ sign).
It sure would be nice to be able to do that, however, MsgBox and InputBox have no properties that you can define. Instead, you will have to create a UserForm that emulates what you are trying to do.
