Surely, it should be
If 1 > 4 Then
MsgBox "1 is greater than 4"
Else
MsgBox "1 is less than 4"
End If
Or even
MsgBox "1 is " & IIf(1 > 4, "greater", "less") & " than 4"
Multiple statement lines just don't feel right to me.

As per Duane's explanation, the code should have been written:
If 1 > 4 Then
MsgBox "1 is greater than 4"
Else: MsgBox "1 is less than 4"
End If

"The colon (:) is a statement delimiter. It would be equivalent to a new line in VBA, or a semicolon in C (just to quote a random example). It allows you to write several instructions on a single line rather than going to a new line each time."
Since your example code has not instruction on the same line after the ":" it serves no purpose.

Hello
I am trying to understand the "ELSE:". Why is the colon necessary? What does it do there?
Thank you
Phucon

If 1 > 4 Then
MsgBox "1 is greater than 4"
Else:
MsgBox "1 is less than 4"
End If
End Sub
