You have just been hired by the SIE Facility Management Corporation. Part of your new duties involve
checking the locations and reporting on the number of Products and Employees in each facility.

There is a worksheet in the Excel file named Warehouses that contain the number of Products and
Employees at each location.

Using VBA, you must create a User Form with the title Warehouse Locations, as shown below. You will need to add
a list box that will contain the locations when the User Form is shown. During initialization of the form, you will need
to load the listbox entries from the data on the spreadsheet so that it looks like the form below. The first location in the
list, Seattle, will be selected by default when the form shows.

You must call this User Form from Sub Main() in the Module Problem1. When the user clicks the OK button, the
Warehouse Locations User Form closes and a message box is displayed that reports the location the user selected,
and with the values selected for whether the report should show Products and / or Employees (see image below.)
The message box must also be called from Sub Main().
