Mr. Smiley

Connecting a form to an Excel workbook...
 
I was wondering if it is even possible to create a form similar to the ones
used in Access, but have it connected to an Excel workbook. Basically, I
want to create a tool that, once the icon is clicked on a users desktop, will
bring up a form. The user will enter all necessary information, then press a
button for the desired results. Is this possible? Thanks.

Excel has userforms, goto the VBIDE (Alt-F11), and insert one
(InsertUserfrom)

Use the workbook open event to launch the form.
