{| = Excel: INPUT &quot;Default&quot; Argument Does Not Center Dialog Box =

SUMMARY
The &quot;Microsoft Excel Functions and Macros&quot; manual incorrectly states on page 245 that the &quot;default&quot; argument in the INPUT function causes the INPUT dialog box to be centered if the &quot;default&quot; argument is omitted or is a 0 (zero).

This information is incorrect. The &quot;default&quot; argument has no bearing on the positioning of the dialog box; rather, it shows information that will, by default, always appear in the edit box when the INPUT function is executed.

The &quot;x_pos&quot; and &quot;y_pos&quot; arguments control the dialog box position in the INPUT command. If the &quot;x_pos&quot; and/or &quot;y_pos&quot; arguments are omitted or are 0 (zero), the dialog box is centered horizontally and/or vertically, respectively.
