Confirming certain fields have entries before a form can be e-mailed

I have an excel form that has certain required fields (more than one) which must have data entered into them. I have created a button that emails the form to me using a VBA statement. Is there a way to prevent the form from being submitted if any of the required cells are left blank? Any assistance would be appreciated.
 

Excel Facts

Square and cube roots
The =SQRT(25) is a square root. For a cube root, use =125^(1/3). For a fourth root, use =625^(1/4).
Hello,

When I learned how to program in VBA, my teacher always asked that we had a "validation" part before the real code start.
When the validation wasn't correct, it will automatically exit the sub and didn't write stuff in Excel or create Word/PDF or send email.

Some validation can be very simple and I think it would be a good solution for your problem.

Code:
If isempty(textbox1) then
msgbox "Plz fill box1"
Exit sub
End if

This worked great on one cell ! Any idea how to add more cell references to the statement so that it checks them as well? Thanks for your help.

What are talking about for "the statement"?

If it's this simple test, you can have the following or simply copy paste it as much as you need.

Code:
[COLOR=#333333]If isempty(textbox1) OR isempty(textbox2) OR isempty(textbox3) then
[/COLOR]msgbox "Plz fill correctly this userform"
Exit sub
End if
