Messagebox issues

Hello,

I have a workbook that I use to choose equipment and calculate prices, and other users also uses this workbook, so it needs to be as user friendly as possible.

I have then created a code that prompts a messagebox if the value in cell B10 exceeds 1.
The same is done for cell B10.

The messageboxes tells the user that two of the equipment type has been chosen, and that they need to decide on a amount of a cost further down the page. The user can then type a amount into the messagebox and press OK, and the workbook uses that value in another cell.

However, I then have a reset macrobutton that I use to reset all choices made in the workbook, and when that is pressed the value in cell B10 and B13 in set to nothing ("").
The messageboxes then prompts, but that is NOT what I want. I ONLY want the messageboxes to prompt if the values in cell B10 and B13 exceeds 1.

Please see code below.

Code:
If Target.Address = Range("B10").Address Then
   If Target.Value = "1" Then
        Worksheets("Choose sheet").Range("B30").Value = "1"
    Exit Sub
    End If
    description = InputBox("More than 1 module has been chosen. Please choose quantity of Miscellaneous costs.")
    If description = "" Then Exit Sub
    Worksheets("Choose sheet").Range("B30").Value = description
End If
If Target.Address = Range("B13").Address Then
   If Target.Value = "1" Then
        Worksheets("Choose sheet").Range("B31").Value = "1"
    Exit Sub
    End If
    description = InputBox("More than 1 module has been chosen. Please choose quantity of Miscellaneous costs.")
    If description = "" Then Exit Sub
    Worksheets("Choose sheet").Range("B31").Value = description
End If
 

Excel Facts

Easy bullets in Excel
If you have a numeric keypad, press Alt+7 on numeric keypad to type a bullet in Excel.
You currently have your message boxes appear based solely on whether B10 or B13 are the target cells.
You do have IF statements underneath them, but you have the message boxes outside of those IF statements.
So you either want to move it inside the IF THEN block, or create a new IF THEN block to put it in, i.e.
Code:
If Target.Value >1 Then
    MsgBox ...
End If
