What am i doing Wrong??

-----------------------------------

The following is the code I have for error checking within my subprogram,

If txtName.Text = "" Then MsgBox "Name not Entered", vbOkOnly, "DAte Input Error"
    ElseIf Not IsNumeric (txtSilver.Text) Then MsgBox "Not a Number",   
    vbOkOnly, "Data Input Error"

my problem here is when I run the program im given an error message that says Else without If. and then directs me to the ElseIf statement.  I dont know whats wrong, can anyone help ???? :lol:

Use code tags, and skip to a newline after "then".

Also, it is proper formatting to use parenthesis when calling a function.  eg: instead of 

MsgBox "Hello"


use 


Call MsgBox ("Hello")

This should work, if not post the exact code causing the problems.


If txtName.Text = "" Then 
    Call MsgBox ("Name not Entered", vbOkOnly, "Data Input Error")
ElseIf Not IsNumeric (txtSilver.Text) Then 
    Call MsgBox ("Not a Number", vbOkOnly, "Data Input Error")
End If

thats a lie! the reason i know is because that is the exact error your getting because your not skipping a line. btw u r missing an end if at the end of your code.
