You say they are named Line1, Line2, Line3 but I only see you use sLine1 and sLine2.

Also, you need spaces before and after & when doing string concatenation. And when you want to use a quotes character inside a quoted string you have to double it. For example: MsgBox """" will only display: "

Try this corrected code:

    html2 = "<li>" & _
               "<a href=""" & sLine1 & """>" & _
               "<img src=""" & sLine2 & """ alt="""" /><br />" & sLine1 & "</a><br />" & _
               "</li><li>"

Thanks it worked but how to do like this adding http before sLine1?

"<a href="http://www.somesite.com/id="" & sLine1 & """>" & _

Read what I said about using quotes in strings (within quotes)

if you want to write: <a href="http://www.somesite.com/id="
to a string you have to double up those qoutes, so it would look like

strA = "<a href=""http://www.somesite.com/id="""
