Hi All
i have the code below which is simple enough but is there a way for me to stop the popup box if the cell "O1" already has the date in

Thanks

Craig

VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()

Dim QtyEntry As String
Dim msg As String

msg = "WHAT IS THE DATE OF PRODUCTION (PRESS CANCEL IF DATE ALREADY IN)"
QtyEntry = InputBox(msg)
ActiveSheet.Range("O1").Value = QtyEntry

End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
Try:
VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
    Dim QtyEntry As String
    If IsDate(Range("O1")) Then
        MsgBox ("Date already exists.")
        Exit Sub
    Else
        QtyEntry = InputBox("WHAT IS THE DATE OF PRODUCTION?")
        If QtyEntry = "" Then Exit Sub
        ActiveSheet.Range("O1").Value = QtyEntry
    End If
End Sub
