VBA or JavaScript? The question is tagged with JavaScript, but in the title VBA is used. Which one is correct?

The code you posted contains many problems so it's hard to know what are the elements (variables or UI objects) you try to use.

First of all, you cannot use spaces in names. Space separates names etc so this would lead to errors in compiling.

Then about variable declaration, first you define the name then the data type. Have a look at Declaring variables (VBA) | Microsoft Docs[^]

About the calculation, in an assignment, the variable you're assigning to is on the left side and the calculation is on the right side. Have a look at Writing assignment statements (VBA) | Microsoft Docs[^]

These should help you to rewrite the code so that it's closer to desired functionality.
