Sub confirmDialog()
‘ Message to check first
Dim confirm As VbMsgBoxResult
confirm = MsgBox(“Are you sure you want to submit?”, _
vbYesNo, “WARNING: Submit Data”)
If confirm = 6 Then
‘ Write data to worksheet
MsgBox “confirmed”, , confirm
Else
‘ no code required here; in fact, you can leave out the Else clause
MsgBox “not confirmed”, , confirm
End If
End Sub

or, leaving out the Else section:

Sub confirmDialog()
‘ Message to check first
Dim confirm As VbMsgBoxResult
confirm = MsgBox(“Are you sure you want to submit?”, _
vbYesNo, “WARNING: Submit Data”)
If confirm = 6 Then
‘ Write data to worksheet
MsgBox “confirmed”, , confirm
End If
End Sub

ok so i tried

im confirm As VbMsgBoxResult

confirm = MsgBox(“Are you sure you want to submit?”, _
vbYesNo, “WARNING: Submit Data”)
If confirm = 6 Then
Else confirm=7 Then

but I’m guessing that wasn’t very clever because it doesn’t work at all.
