Joining String variables... struggling

[maykinit]

Dim Var1 As String, Var2 As String
Var1 = InputBox("Variable 1?")
Var2 = InputBox("Variable 2?")

If I have two string variables defined as:

sFirst = "ActiveCell.Value = Val(Var1)"
sSecond = "ActiveCell.Offset(, 1).Value = Val(Var2)"

The value of ActiveCell and ActiveCell.Offset matches that of Var1 and Var2

I wonder if someone could advise what I am doing wrong when the following will not work? What is it I am doing wrong? I get "run time error '13': Type Mismatch". Thanks so much.

If (sFirst) & " " & "And" & " " & (sSecond) Then
MsgBox "works"
End If

What (I think) you are doing will not work. You cannot build up strings of code like that and then execute them directly. If you really wanted to, you would have to actually edit a code module in code to write that code out, then call the routine you had created. I would not recomend this and cannot, offhand, think of a good reason for needing to do this; perhaps you could elaborate?

This works for your example:

Sub x()
    Const nCol      As Long = 6
    Dim av(1 To nCol) As Variant
    Dim iRow        As Long
    Dim iCol        As Long
 
    av(1) = 10
    av(2) = 102
    av(3) = "S"
    av(4) = "S"
    av(5) = "02"
    av(6) = "600RJ"
 
    For iRow = 1 To Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
        For iCol = 1 To nCol
            If Not IsEmpty(Cells(iRow, iCol)) Then
                If Cells(iRow, iCol) <> av(iCol) Then Exit For
            End If
        Next iCol
        If iCol > nCol Then MsgBox Cells(iRow, nCol + 1)
    Next iRow
End Sub

Cool! I believe I can expand upon this now and embellish it to get me where I'm trying to go. Thank you so very much!!
