cancel array Input Box

Question

I am trying to make the cancel function work for my array it works for a simple input box but Array(InputBox( does not like it very much.

Working code.

If strVarValue = vbNullString Then
    MsgBox ("User canceled!")
    WScript.Quit
End If

What I need help with

strIPAddress = Array(InputBox("IP address"))
If strIPAddress = vbNullString Then
    MsgBox ("User canceled!")
    WScript.Quit
End If

Doesn't like the Array hence why I'm getting type mismatch.

Answer 1

Do the conversion only if the user did not press "Cancel":

userInput = InputBox("IP address")
If userInput = "" Then
    MsgBox ("User canceled!")
    WScript.Quit
End If

strIPAddress = Array(userInput)

Also, if you want to distinguish between "user pressed Cancel" and "user pressed OK without entering a value" you need to check if the variable is Empty:

userInput = InputBox("IP address")
If IsEmpty(userInput) Then
    MsgBox ("User canceled!")
    WScript.Quit
ElseIf userInput = "" Then
    MsgBox ("Missing input!")
    WScript.Quit 1
End If

strIPAddress = Array(userInput)
