Hi cloudlck,

Here's some email validation code. I included everything I could think of that would need to be in an email address. However, you should easily be able to add more validation after checking out the code below.

In order to try it out, create a new project with a text box and a command button.

Code:

---

Option Explicit

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    If Text1 = "" Or Left(Text1, 1) = "@" Or InStr(Text1, "@") = 0 Or UCase(Right(Text1, 3)) <> "COM" Or InStr(Text1, "@@") > 0 Then
        MsgBox "Invalid Email Address.", vbCritical, "Try Again."
        Text1.SetFocus
    Else
        MsgBox "Valid Email Address."
    End If
End Sub

---

All the best.
