I am completely new to VBA and I was recently using to get HTTP status for the website using the following code

VBA Code:
Public Function CheckURL(url As String)
    Dim request As Object
    Set request = CreateObject("Winhttp.WinhttpRequest.5.1")
    On Error GoTo haveError
    With request
    .Open "HEAD", url
    .Send
    CheckURL = .Status
    End With
    Exit Function
haveError:
    CheckURL = Err.Description
    End Function

It just gives the message as 404 or 200. There is no details in it. I would like to add a small text like 200 Working and 404 Error like this. Can some help me with this. Please......

    Dim request As Object
    Set request = CreateObject("Winhttp.WinhttpRequest.5.1")

    .Open "HEAD", url
    .Send
    CheckURL = .Status & ": " & .statustext
    End With
    Exit Function
haveError:
    CheckURL = Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description
    End Function
