Dialogue box templates

[Eric]

Hi All --

Just wondering if there is a spot to get generic dialogue boxes for
download. I just want to have a popp when opening a document explaining how
to print the document with an OK button. Anyone got one handy?

That's what the MsgBox function is for. Try this (note that you'll have to
set your macro security level to Medium, and enable macros in the document
when prompted):

Sub AutoOpen()
MsgBox "These are my instructions."
End Sub

You could also build a userform with a label and a button, but that's
probably overkill.
