The first thing my user sees is an InputBox where they can enter a string.

The script then searches a folder full of text files for this string, and returns the results.

What I'd like is after all this, the script runs again, offering them a new search.

I can't think of a way of saying "Goto Line 1".

Is that not the same question as http://www.visualbasicscript.com/m_46693/mpage_1/key_Input/tm.htm#46693

No, it's a different InputBox.

My script runs. An input box pops up. User types a string to search for. The script then searches all the text file, and returns which text files the string was found on, in an InputBox. User can then type any of these file names into the InputBox, and the script will open that text file. It's this 2nd InputBox I keep open, so if the user opens a text file and sees it's not the one they're looking for, they can go back to the InputBox and try the next one, and so on, till they click cancel.

The question in THIS thread is about the very 1st InputBox. In other words once the user is done with the 2nd InputBox, if they click Cancel (or if there were no matches to their string in InputBox 1), they get taken back to the 1st InputBox, so they can search for something else.

In other words, the only way for the script to exit should be clicking Cancel at the 1st InputBox

Off the cuff:

bOuterDone = False

Do While Not bOuterDone
strRet = InputBox("Outer")
If strRet = "" Then exit Do

bInnerDone = False

Do While Not bInnerDone
strRet = InputBox("Inner")
If strRet = "" Then Exit Do
Loop
Loop

So could you not ceate them as Subs/Functions then Call that Sub/Function once the second InputBox exits
