[RESOLVED] How to verify if one of two fields is filled in

[scoobster]

Hi forum

I have 2 text boxes on an Excel workbook and I want to use VBA to validate the field content.

The user has to fill in at least one of these text boxes with a numeric value greater than 0. If he fills in both then that is fine.

If neither is complete then I'd like to format the text box so that it is obvious something needs to be filled in for that particular field.

Any help / code sample is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Some code to play with:

Private Sub cmdValidate_Click()

    Dim tb1Val      'text box 1 value
    Dim tb2Val      'text box 2 value
    Dim tb1Good As Boolean
    Dim tb2Good As Boolean
    
    tb1Val = tb1.Value
    tb2Val = tb2.Value
    If IsNumeric(tb1Val) Then
        If tb1Val <= 0 Then
            'not okay
        Else
            tb1Good = True
            Exit Sub
        End If
    End If
    If IsNumeric(tb2Val) Then
        If tb2Val <= 0 Then
            'not okay
        Else
            tb2Good = True
            Exit Sub
        End If
    End If
    If tb1Good = False And tb2Good = False Then
        tb1.BorderStyle = fmBorderStyleSingle
        tb1.BorderColor = vbRed
    End If
End Sub

TB1 is the name of the first text box, TB2 is the second...

Thanks a lot for this and for replying to all other post over the last couple of weeks.

Code sample looks good. Thanks. I will give it ago within my project and adjust as needed.
