Hi guys,


I've created a routine that starts with a message box saying the following:

"Please Confirm 'DTmacTest.xls' is the ONLY open Excel workbook"

So I have an "OK" button and a "Cancel" button.

but no matter which one I press, it runs the routine.

How do I assign the cancel button to stop the routine when it's pressed?

thanks,

Paul.

You could just use IF to test for the cancel button, and exit the routine if Cancel's been pressed:
Code:
If MsgBox("Please Confirm 'DTmacTest.xls' is the ONLY open Excel workbook", vbOKCancel) = vbCancel Then Exit Sub
Rest of your code here...........


:cool:

thanks .
should have thought of that.

How to change case of text in Excel?
Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney
