Validating UserForm TextBox to Only Accept Numbers

If you are fairly comfortable with Excel VBA you will most likely want to design a UserForm to ensure correct use of your Spreadsheet. However, just placing some TextBoxes on a UserForm for users to enter data is not enough. For example, the TextBoxes may be intended to take only numeric data and not Text strings. To do this you can use some code as shown below.

Private Sub TextBox1_Change() 
    OnlyNumbers 
End Sub 
 
Private Sub TextBox2_Change() 
    OnlyNumbers 
End Sub 
 
Private Sub TextBox3_Change() 
    OnlyNumbers 
End Sub 
 
Private Sub OnlyNumbers()

    If TypeName(Me.ActiveControl) = "TextBox" Then
        With Me.ActiveControl
            If Not IsNumeric(.Value) And .Value <> vbNullString Then
                MsgBox "Sorry, only numbers allowed"
                .Value = vbNullString
            End If
        End With
    End If
    
End Sub

As with any UserForm Control code, this code must reside in the Private Module of the UserForm Object
