I am looking for a way to capture a textbox data with two variables then compare to see if they match or not.

That's, when I enter the textbox, I want to capture it's value.

Then when I Exit that textbox, I want to capture that value as well.

It may happen that I just enter and leave or I change its data.

And in each case I want the two variables set.

I was thinking of the "Enter" and "After Update" events . But I have no idea how to compare those two variables from the two separate subs.


I am talking about userform textbox here.

So a command button when clicked will display the alert:

"Match" or "Not Match"

Thanks in advance

Hi there.

Try this in your userform code:
Code:
Dim EnterValue As Variant
Dim ExitValue As Variant

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
If EnterValue = ExitValue Then
    MsgBox "Match"
Else
    MsgBox "No Match"
End If
End Sub

Private Sub TextBox1_Change()

End Sub

Private Sub TextBox1_Enter()
EnterValue = Me.TextBox1.Value
End Sub

Private Sub TextBox1_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
ExitValue = Me.TextBox1.Value
End Sub
