If you want to prevent a user from closing the userform via the "x" just use
sub UserForm_QueryClose:
Private Sub UserForm_QueryClose(Cancel As Integer, CloseMode As Integer)
If CloseMode = 0 Then Cancel = True
End Sub

CloseMode is 0 when a userform is manually closed and 1 when closed through
code like this:


Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Unload UserForm1
End Sub
