I have a database in sheet 2 with certain serial numbers and a userform in sheet 1 that allows me to manage this database, including adding new entries. Each entry needs to have a unique serial number. The serial number can not be duplicated. The serial number follows this format TARA-SS-001. I need the last three digits to increment by one based on my last serial number in my database in sheet 2. For example, if my last serial number is TARA-SS-001 in my data base my next serial number should be TARA-SS-002. Upon opening the userform, the serial number should appear on Textbox1 prefilled. I just cannot come with any code that can help me on this, I am pretty new to VBA. Can someone pease help me to find a code?

Thank you very much.
 
Glad we could help & thanks for the feedback
