VBA InputBox Issue

I have a simple macro. To copy values from one workbook to another in this case ML to MCR based on the user input number.

Number format can be e.g M5888-9087, M1990A 600111512, 453564034421 822349224.

Macro works with numbers like M5888-9087 but if I enter M1990A 600111512 or 453564034421 822349224 it copies all the rows instead of filtering M1990A 600111512 or 453564034421 822349224 and copying those selected rows.

Space in between is the culprit. How to overcome this?

Does changing the filter helps? I see other filters in object library.

Sub MCR()

Dim myInp As Variant

myInp = VBA.Interaction.InputBox(Prompt:="Enter the number", Title:="MCR Macro")

Windows("ML.xlsx").Activate

Worksheets("Full-View").Select

Worksheets("Full-View").ListObjects("Table1").Range.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=myInp

Range("Table1[[#Headers],[Serial]]").Select

ActiveCell.Offset(1, 7).Range("Table1[[#Headers],[Serial]]").Select

Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select

Selection.Copy

Windows("MCR Macro.xlsm").Activate

Range("A4").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _

:=False, Transpose:=False

End Sub

    Take your time. Once everything is clear then give it a try.

    Unfortunately my wife has developed health problems and it is taking up so much of my time with both medical appointments and looking after her. I'll try to get back to it in the next week or so but I can't give you any promises.

    Had a little bit of time this morning to look at this but the file transfer is expired so can't do anything.
