How to add textbox/buttons to an UserForm
 

Hi,

I am trying to add an UserForm to my Excel macro and it is
for displaying data by some textboxes on it. However, how
can I add the buttons/textboxes on the form? I can't find
the ControlTool box tool bar in the VB Editor....
Can anyone help? Thanks a lot!

How to add textbox/buttons to an UserForm
 

Terence,

I think that Patrick thought you wanted to add these controls dynamically
whilst the form was up.

In design mode, there most certainly is a toolbox to add con trols from. In
the VB IDE, goto menu ViewToolbox, and click it. You should so a familiar
controls toolbox pop up, and although it's not drag and drop, you just
click a control to activate it, and then draw it on the form.

Hi Patrick,

Thanks for your help.
Do you mean that there is no "drag & drop" of controls
into the form?

an example:

Dim ctrl As Control
Set ctrl = _
Me.Controls.Add("Forms.CheckBox.1")
With ctrl
.Top = ctrl.Height
.Left = 25
.Caption = "CheckBox " & colCheckBoxes.Count
End With
