Default UserForm does NOT save changes to design (Excel 2000)

Rob Bovey's Code Cleaner would also have been my first suggestion (with the
assumption user would use the clearly displayed options as required).

However I vaguely recall having a problem similar to what you describe,
possibly after dragging a Form from one project to another then back again
after renaming (not sure though).

No doubt there's a simple explanation but it might be quicker to rebuild
your workbook. Select all sheets and via a sheet tab copy to a new workbook.
Drag modules from the original workbook into the new workbook.

If that still doesn't work, repeat dragging all except the form module and
re-make a new form.

Hi all...

I am having a strange issue with Excel v9.0.6926 SP3.

I make changes to a UserForm's design (that I created when using Excel
2003 - just information in case this could be the cause) within my
version of Excel and when I click Save and re-open the UserForm, it
reverts back to its previous state.

I have found a workaround whereby I export the Form first to a file,
then remove the current Form, and then import the saved Form. Then I
save the workbook and this seems to save the changes made to the
design.

I must state that this issue only exists when I change design in some
way, from adding a new control to change the TabIndex property. If I
edit some code and save, the coding is saved.

The same issue occurs on my office computer, but I cannot confirm the
version number right now...

Any ideas?
