Input box

I am using input box in my application. The input box returns the string value entered in the text box. How can i
know whether user has pressed 'OK' button or 'Cancel' button in input box.

I got the answer Read on

if the user presses cancel, vbNullString is returned. However if they press OK, the empty string ("") is sent back.
But in Visual Basic, vbNullString equates to an empty string, so you can't compare the two - even though in reality, they're
completely different.

However you can use the StrPtr ('string pointer') function to determine whether the return string is indeed a vbNullString -
as by definition, a vbNullString 'pointer' is zero.

And this code demonstrates how to do that.

Code

Dim strInput As String

strInput = InputBox("Enter something:")

If StrPtr(strInput) = 0 Then
MsgBox "You pressed cancel!"
End If
