Hi everyone,

I want the cursor to not move from a box if a particular information is not entered.

And this is the code I have used, but it does not seem to work

If Type_of_Transfer.Text = "" And Transfer.Enabled = True Then
Type_of_Transfer.SetFocus
MsgBox ("Select the type of transfer from the list")

Else
add.SetFocus
End If


Help please :rolleyes:

Hold down the Ctrl key while dragging tab for Sheet1 to the right. Excel will make a copy of the worksheet.
Where have you actually put this code?
