Default Format Control Tab

In Excel 2000 there is no "Format Control Tab" only "Size, Protection,
Properties and Web" tabs to choose from after clicking on "Control
Properties" when attempting to format a SPIN BUTTON. How do I invoke this
missing tab?

Default Format Control Tab

Sounds to me like you grabbed the spinner off of the control toolbox an not
the forms toolbar. The controls from the Control Toolbox are ActiveX controls
and behave a bit differently. Their properties are accessed by right clicking
the control and selecting Properties instead of Format Control...
