Inserting values in MsgBox

[excelnut1954]

I want the value of PONum to be inserted in the message box. I tried
writing it after reading past posts on the subject, but I get an error.
Syntax error?

'Here's the code leading up the Msgbox:

Dim PONum As String
For i = 1 To 13
'This will check to make sure there is only 1 PO number on list.
Worksheets("Official List").Activate
If Me.Controls("TextBox" & i * 2 - 1).Text <> "" Then
PONum = Me.Controls("TextBox" & i * 2 - 1).Text
CountPOtoValidate = Application.CountIf(Range("J:J"), PONum)

If CountPOtoValidate < 1 Then
MsgBox ("This record " & Range("PONum") & "does not exist on the
list." & vbNewLine & _
"Please check the PO number you entered, and try
again.")

I'm assuming I have to put quotes around PONum, right?

Anything stand out to anyone???



Thanks for your help,
J.O.

Hi,
That might work if there was a named range named POnum.
Try this...
MsgBox ("This record " & PONum & " does not exist on the
list." & vbNewLine & _
"Please check the PO number you entered, and try
again.")

Given that ponu is a var set a few lines above.

There was 1 more thing. What is the syntax for getting the PONum to
show up on the nexr line by itself, then the rest can be under it.
Also, can the PONum be in bold?

Thank alot

Forget it... I searched some more in here, and see from a past post
that you can't selectively change the fonts in the message box.
And, I got how to seperate the lines how I need them.
Thanks
