VBA, Simple Macro Example

The purpose of creating this page is to help you understand how to declare a integer variable in VBA, assign value to it and compare it using IF THEN and show the result using using message box. However, in near future we will move step by step to more complex conditions.

1) Dim xValue As Integer -> Creates the integer variable which can hold numeric values and in case if you are not sure about the user input, please use variant type.
2) xValue = Sheet1.Cells(3, 4) -> This part of code is written under 'Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()' hence will only execute when someone clicks on the command button 1 which is placed on sheet1.
3) If xValue >= 18 Then MsgBox "You are major", vbInformation + vbOKOnly, "IF Then Macros"Else MsgBox "You are Minor", vbInformation + vbOKOnly, "IF Then Macros"End If
The above code check if the xValue is greater or equal to 18 and display the necessary output using the msgbox.
