Looking for a suggestion and I got a hellish don't do that situation.
While playing with new stuff re: _InputBox$. I noticed I can use strings as part of the three passed variables. Separation by comma. Need not apply quotes.
I can build a string for the message part of the box. This way I can pass a true question with different messages based on the built string. Then I noticed my message string was getting long and longer. (expected result of building the string). It looked ugly in the popup box. I mean really ugly. So I tried to make it pretty. Well I exceeded to make it pretty. And I mean pretty "D E A D L Y".
Do not, and I really mean do not. Use CR/LF control codes in the message part. Likely other codes won't work either. Unicode maybe alright. (did not test). The result is a hung program window. Really hung program window. Needs task manager to clear it.
My needed suggestion how can I manage my message part of the popup box, and not make it look like a run on sentence ?
