Thanks !

I used the second method to benefit from Intellisense working too;
since the two lines :

Dim frm AS MyForm
Set frm = MyForm

are one below the other, it will be easy to change, if ever required.


Tom Ogilvy avait énoncé :
try

Dim frm AS Object

that worked for me.

Userform is a generic class, when you create a new userform, it is its own
type.

assume the form is show in the project explorer as MyForm

then you could use

Dim frm as Myform

that will also work.

hello !

I have a userform for which I want to programmatically set/change
properties in a function before displaying it.

Instead of hardcoding the form's name at many places in the function, I'd
like to assign it to a form object and use this object in my function.

How can I do it ?

I tried :

Dim frm AS MSForms.UserForm
Set frm = frmActualFormName

Using this syntax, I can access and edit form's controls, but when the
program reaches :
frm.Show

I get an error 438 : Object doesn't support this property or method.

Why ?

Thanks.
