Hello,

I'm not sure how to accurately provide a summary of what I'm trying to accomplish. I'm trying to create a user form that builds a "text template" based off of what a user inputs into the form. In short, the excel sheet would read:

"Testing One Two Three" & vbnewline & vbnewline & "Did This Work"

I want that text to be put into my macro. So strTextFormat = (above text)

Is this possible? Is there a way to accomplish this?

Ambidextrous Undo
Undo last command with Ctrl+Z or Alt+Backspace. If you use the Undo icon in the QAT, open the drop-down arrow to undo up to 100 steps.
Not sure if I can edit my original post. Couldn't see any sort of button to do so.

I ended up figuring out a solution to my problem. In short, this is what I've done:

Code:
Dim intCount As Integer         ''' Used to count how many cells have been used.
Dim strText As String           ''' Template for each cell.
Dim strVariable1 As String      ''' Variable to be replaced in cell.


Next_Transaction:               ''' If the user has multiple variables, loop and replicate formula using next variable.


intCount = intCount + 1         ''' Used to count how many cells have been used.


strText = TextBox1                          ''' Specified text of the user.
If TextBox2 <> "" Then
strText = strText & vbNewLine & TextBox2    ''' If user puts no information in second text box, then don't add new line.
End If


strVariable1 = Workbooks("Book1").Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(intCount, 3)       ''' This is the column contianing all the variables.


strText = Replace(strText, "<Variable 1>", strVariable1)                    ''' This is the string of text being added to column containing text format.


Workbooks("Book1").Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(intCount, 1) = strText            ''' This is the column the string of text is being added to.


If Workbooks("Book1").Sheets("Sheet1").Cells((intCount + 1), 3) <> "" Then  ''' This checks to see if additional variables were added. If so, repeat steps.
GoTo Next_Transaction
End If
