Just trying to take all this in.. 

If I didn't want to use Inputbox, could I create a form with a textbox named txtName. 

Then, assign 

myName = txtName.text 

and etc for all of the variables you used. 

Then, make a Submit Button that would execute the code you gave? 

I was thinking about actually creating a progra to create a datafile with all of this information, then creating another program to read the datafile and create the business card layout. That way I can jjust change the second program if they make any changes to the graphic standards. Not to mention I'd have lots of 15 line data files instead of full-on indesign documents for each card. 

This doesn't seem like it'd be too dificult.
