    'but why does this have to be coded two times?
    It doesn't, unless the developer wants it to do that. In the first call you are passing the system date as noted. In the second, you're passing a hard coded date which doesn't need a conversion function if you write it as #08/01/2021#
    EDIT
    BTW - isn't the first test in the IIF function testing if Sunday = Saturday? That will never be true.

    @Micron, check the definition of the WeekDay() function. The second argument, vbSunday defines the first day of the week.

    Yeah, guess I should have but momma was standing there waiting for me to take her to her appointment. I don't recall ever using that function.

    From the code
    'where is the date coming from in order to evaluate and populate the message box?
    Maybe this demo I whipped up will help

    Enter a date and click the button.
    Then enter any text (I used Amy ) and click the button. There is some validation code in the button click.
    Set a break point on the button click code to tract what is happening....
