Casey,

No equal sign on the MsgBox line:

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)

If Target.Row = 5 And Target.Column = 6 Then
MsgBox "Have you verified your Extra Material setting in cell A1? Normal setting is 25."
End If

End Sub

You can also modify other cells, or check the input value with the change event.

HTH,

Hi,
I'm trying to have a reminder message pop up when a certain cell is
selected. I would like to do this with VBA as opposed to doing it with
a Data Validation input message. I've tried the following code but to
no avail. Here's the code followed by the error message.

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)

If Target.Row = 5 And Target.Column = 6 Then
MsgBox = "Have you verified your Extra Material setting in cell
A1? Normal setting is 25."
End If

End Sub

I get the following error message:

---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Basic
---------------------------
Compile error:

Function call on left-hand side of assignment must return Variant or
Object
---------------------------
OK Help
---------------------------
