Without seeing the code, this is just a guess.

Add a DoEvents after the Hide.

Alternatively, and depending on what you are doing, consider
{userform}.Repaint

I have a sort routine that starts with a user form to get input and then
opens a series of input boxes. I have the hide command for the user form
but the form does not go away untill all the input boxes have been
filled. i would like the user form to close right away.
