how to add a textbox if user chooses yes in response to msgbox.

[dan dungan]

Hi,

Request:
I seek help to figure out is how to manage multiple quantities in a
quote.

I have a userform--userform4 with a command button--commandbutton1,
with the code shown below.

I'm trying to use an input box to collect the first quantity and then
store it in a variable and display it in a text box.

I don't understand how to loop if the user has more than one
quantity.

I tried to add a new textbox if the user answers yes to the msgbox,
"Do you have another quantity to enter?"

I don't know if it is better to calculate the price for each quantity
as I collect it, or to collect all the quantities first and then
calculate the price for each quantity by calling the vlookups.


Overview:
Using Excel and Access 2000, I've developed a quoting application that
uses so many vlookup formulas that the worksheet is becoming unstable
and slow.

Also, I need to add functionality that will save the data and then
retrieve it later to allow corrections.

So, I want to move the vlookups from the spreadsheet and call them
with vba from a userform so the workbook only has to calculate the
vlookups that are in effect for that part number.

Detail:
A customer requests a quote for a part number and possibly several
quantities.
So I need to calculate the price for each quantity.

Each quantity is a new record in the quote.

In the final quote, I only show the Quote number, Part number,
Customer Name and contact ID, Item number, competitor number,
quantity, and price and delivery information. I don't show all the
calculations.

I appreciate any feedback.

Thanks,

Dan
