Hello,
wondering if I could get some help writing code to create a yes/no pop-up message box?
I want it to appear when I click on a specific sheet within my workbook. Then, depending on the answer, fill a designated cell with an "x".
 

Excel Facts

How to create a cell-sized chart?
Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
Behind your specific sheet module

VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
On Error Resume Next
If MsgBox("Want to fill cell?", vbYesNo, "test") = vbYes Then Range(Application.InputBox("Value?", "Test")) = "x"
End Sub

fill a designated cell with an "x"
How do we know what the "designated cell" is?

BTW, I suggest that you update your Account details (click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)

When I click on my "Customer Info" sheet within my workbook, I want the pop-up box to ask, "Has this customer seen our company's digital ad?"
If no, b3="x"
If yes, b2="x"

Thanks! Account details updated.

While that code worked perfectly, I'm afraid I didn't explain well enough. If you check out my response to Peter_SSs, it may be more clear to you what my end goal is. VBA Code for yes/no pop-up box

I am not clear on which event you need for your request. You say you want the MessageBox to popup "when [you] click on a specific sheet within my workbook"... does that mean when you first activate (select) the sheet? or does that mean when you click on a cell within the sheet? If the latter, do you everytime any cell is clicked? In any event (no pun intended), here is the line of code that you can use...
VBA Code:
Cells(MsgBox("Want to fill cell?", vbYesNo, "Test") - 4, "B").Value = "X"
