Hi there,

Im wanting to set textbox "missionstart" to a value based on the value entered in textbox "flightstarthh"
I have tried this code below but whatever i do it always returns the value in the first if statement.

Where am i going wrong?

If flight1starthh.Value = "0" Or "1" Then
missionstart.Value = "0000 - 0159"
elseIf flight1starthh.Value = "2" Or "3" Then
missionstart.Value = "0200 - 0359"
ElseIf flight1starthh.Value = 4 Or 5 Then
'missionstart.Value = "0400 - 0559"
'ElseIf flight1starthh.Value = 6 Or 7 Then
'missionstart.Value = "0600 - 0759"
'ElseIf flight1starthh.Value = 8 Or 9 Then
'missionstart.Value = "0800 - 0959"
'ElseIf flight1starthh.Value = 10 Or 11 Then
'missionstart.Value = "1000 - 1159"
'ElseIf flight1starthh.Value = 12 Or 13 Then
'missionstart.Value = "1200 - 1359"
'ElseIf flight1starthh.Value = 14 Or 15 Then
'missionstart.Value = "1400 - 1559"
'ElseIf flight1starthh.Value = 16 Or 17 Then
'missionstart.Value = "1600 - 1759"
'ElseIf flight1starthh.Value = 18 Or 19 Then
'missionstart.Value = "1800 - 1959"
'ElseIf flight1starthh.Value = 20 Or 21 Then
'missionstart.Value = "2000 - 2159"
Else: missionstart.Value = "2200 - 2359"
end if
end sub

If flight1starthh.Value = "0" Or "1" Then

This is the wrong syntax. All of your If statements need to look like this:

VBA Code:
If flight1starthh.Value = "0" Or flight1starthh.Value = "1" Then

Also from a user interface design perspective, if you have a textbox that can only have 1-21 then you should use a combobox with those numbers instead of letting the user type in whatever comes into their head. What if they type FOOBAR?

thanks for your advice, i changed the syntax and still ALWAYS get the result from the first if statement. any ideas?

Instead of If-ElseIf, why not use Select Case?

VBA Code:
    Select Case flight1starthh.Value
    Case "0", "1"
        missionstart.Value = "0000 - 0159"
    Case "2", "3"
        missionstart.Value = "0200 - 0359"
    Case "4", "5"
        missionstart.Value = "0400 - 0559"
    Case "6", "7"
        missionstart.Value = "0600 - 0759"
    Case "8", "9"
        missionstart.Value = "0800 - 0959"
    Case "10", "11"
        missionstart.Value = "1000 - 1159"
    Case "12", "13"
        missionstart.Value = "1200 - 1359"
    Case "14", "15"
        missionstart.Value = "1400 - 1559"
    Case "16", "17"
        missionstart.Value = "1600 - 1759"
    Case "18", "19"
        missionstart.Value = "1800 - 1959"
    Case "20", "21"
        missionstart.Value = "2000 - 2159"
    Case Else
        missionstart.Value = "2200 - 2359"
    End Select

@rlv01 has a good solution. I would still be interested in seeing your revised code so I can tell you why it doesn't work. Might be educational for both of us.
