Hi,

I am trying to use the text that is entered into a text box to do a Vlookup. The code I have tried is:

Dim user As String
user = username.Text
Range("check") = user

I have also tried

Range("check") = username.text

It keeps getting stuck on the = username.text.
 

Excel Facts

Spell Check in Excel
Press F7 to start spell check in Excel. Be careful, by default, Excel does not check Capitalized Werds (whoops)
Ah, nevermind.....I got it

Dim user As String
user = Sheets("LogIn").username.Text
Range("check") = user
