Ohh boy, back to VBA coding, I've been working on Java for so long I can't remember some basics! What does the $ symbol represent? ie:

MsgBox Error$

And is there any good links or forums for these sort of syntax questions? Save me asking basic questions to experts!

Cheers Uncle Svenno
 
$ is shorthand for string

dim x$
is the same as
dim x as string
