- I have a userform textbox in which applicants input their email

Question
- I want the @ symbol to be mandatory
- I want a message box to show if there is no @ symbol inputted

My current code is as follows (I have both a Change and Exit sub, I know I can dump them into one Exit sub, but I prefer to require lowercase even upon typing):
Code:
Private Sub tbEmail_Change()
    tbEmail.Text = LCase(tbEmail.Text)
End Sub

Private Sub tbEmail_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
    If tbEmail.Value = vbNullString Then
        MsgBox "Enter Email"
        Cancel = True
    End If
End Sub

Thanks

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Maybe:
Code:
Private Sub tbEmail_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
    If tbEMail.Value = vbNullString Then
        MsgBox "Enter Email"
        Cancel = True
    ElseIf InStr(tbEMail, "@") = 0 Then
        MsgBox "You must use '@' in your email."
        Cancel = True
    End If
End Sub
