In the process of moving from an xla to a dll I need to use the ref
edit control in a VB6 form (which is not possible:

).

Searching in this forum saw that it was an old problem. Wonder if
somebody can spare me the time to "build"a work around using a: form,
a text box, a command button and inputbox...

Cheers

Hi Harald: absolutely wonderful !!! Thanks, by the way I recommend to
read Peltier's artcicl: a lot of useful information for those using
the ref edit control as it is.
