Default Activating a worksheet with a user form open on the screen

Hi
I have a userform that pops up requesting some data from the user. As it is
now... when the user form is opened on the screen..and worksheet 1 is
showing behind it... you cannot move around in the worksheet 1...unless you
close the userform.
Is there a way I can keep the userform opened.. but still let the user move
around in worksheet 1 while viewing the userform?

Thanks in advance
Kimberly

Kimberly,

If you have Excel 2000 or above you can set the form's ShowModal property to
False, making the form modeless. Otherwise you are out of luck.

Kimberly,

Don't know if this helps but ... If you want the user to be able to select a
range to be used in your userform code, you can use a refedit control from
the userform controls toolbox.
