Can I have the same variable names in multiple different "forms"
inside my personal.xls? * In other words in form1 I have a variable
called SaveToDesktop adn in form2 I also have a variable called
SaveToDesktop.

Is this OK to have the same variable name in two different user forms
in the same personal.xls file? *This "variable" represents a control
in each form.

Thanks,

Thank you Chip... I will investigate further. I am getting an
"ambigbuous name detected" message and thought that might be the
name. Oddly though when I did make the variable names different in
each form code section the ambiguous name error message did not occur.
