Page 290: Code Sample: Quote Marks Outside Parenthesis

In the code sample on page 290, the quote marks included in the MsgBox statements are in the wrong place in the SpinButton_Spinup() and SpinButton_SpinDown() subroutines. Change the routines to read as follows:
   Sub SpinButton_SpinUp()
      MsgBox ("Up arrow clicked")
   End Sub
   Sub Spinbutton_SpinDown()
      MsgBox ("Down arrow clicked")
   End Sub
