hi
from an old post by Tom Hutchins.......
You can hide Excel so only your userform is showing.

To hide Excel when the form as activated:
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
'Hide Excel when this form is activated
Application.Visible = False
End Sub

To show Excel again when the form is unloaded (In this example, the code is
attached to a command button on the form).
Private Sub cmdExit_Click()
'Close the form and show Excel.
Unload Me
Application.Visible = True
End Sub

and i suppose that you will have other code to go with the form.
just be sure to unhide excel when you close your form.

I wanted to create a form using Excel. The form example that I have
seen shows the Excel Spreadsheet in the background.

Is it possible to create a form that will not show Excel at all?
Basically, what I wanted to create is a form with no Excel menus or
Excel cells. All I want the user to see is the form, with no hint of
Excel. That way, the end user will not realize that they are using
Excel at all.

If I can do the above, is there an example on the Net that I can
download and examine. Otherwise maybe you all can tell me how to do
this.
