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).
Hi,
try this & see if helps

Code:
Sub InputBoxTest()
    Dim GetInput As Variant
    Dim Prompt As String, Title As String
    
    Prompt = "Enter Your Name"
    Title = "Enter Name"
    
    Do
    GetInput = InputBox(Prompt, Title)
'cancel pressed
    If StrPtr(GetInput) = 0 Then Exit Sub
'exit when value entered
    Loop Until Len(GetInput) > 0
    
    MsgBox GetInput
End Sub
