understanding how to use input boxes

[ammartino44]

The code below opens up an inputbox, right? How does it know to proceed to ask "Example if it is January 1, enter 1."? And why is there a comma after that statement? And finally, where is there another comma and then a "1"? Thanks.

It doesn't proceed. Its one long question separated by vbCrLf (Carriage return line feed) which will separate the string into different lines.

The & concatenates the entire message into one string.

The comma after that statement is to separate between optional arguments for the inputbox. The comma tells the code you are done with the body of the message and would like to move on to setting the caption of the input box (in the header of the box). The last optional setting, 1, determines what type of inputbox you're using.
