how to make it go back instead of kicking you out?

This is part of my formula. So it's a box I click on... I enter Supplier name, department, and information of the supplier first... and then eventually ITEM# or SKU# Now, what I added was in between END IF and END in RED. Because I didn't want to have duplicate item numbers in my system. What it does is that it looks up to see if the same SKU# exists in the product page sheet... if it does, I return a value 1 otherwise 0. If it's 0, it means there's no duplicates, which then goes on prompting for other information such as price etc... BUT, if it does have duplicate, a message pops up saying duplicate, SKU and then only option is O.K. and it kicks you out to start over again.... but the problem is, that the supplier information entered before has to be re-entered again... it's possible to have multiple items from same supplier, so it's a bit frustrating to start all over again.... so, what I would like is that if it find a duplicate SKU, it tells you, but let's you correct it or change the number. Something like... Duplicate SKU, try again...
Is that possible please?


Reply = InputBox(Prompt:="ITEM SKU", _
Title:="ITEM SKU", Default:="")
If Reply = vbNullString Then

Else
ActiveSheet.Range("AA11").Value = Reply
End If
If ActiveSheet.Range("aa14").Value = 0 Then
ActiveSheet.Range("aa11").Value = ID
Else
MsgBox "DUPLICATE ITEM NUMBER"
End
End If
Reply = InputBox(Prompt:="DESCRIBE THE PRODUCT", _
Title:="PRODUCT DESCRIPTION", Default:="")
If Reply = vbNullString Then

Else
ActiveSheet.Range("AB11").Value = Reply
End If
Reply = InputBox(Prompt:="SUGGESTED SELLING PRICE", _
Title:="PRICE", Default:="")
If Reply = vbNullString Then

Else
ActiveSheet.Range("AC11").Value = Reply

End statement terminates vba runtime immediately. You need to use either Exit or GoTo statement.

how would I modify my above formula? I haven't played with excel in a while... my memory is coming back, but it's frustrating when it doesn't work lol thanks

If you want the function/subroutine to stop right after displaying msgbox about duplicate, then use Exit Sub (or Exit Function) instead of End.

Or to execute certain other code segment within the subroutine after displaying message box, assign label name to a line and use GoTo myLineLabel to jump to that. Or restructure your If statement to include all those statements.

I had included documentation of all three keywords is in my post earlier (hyperlinks) for your reference.
