'Floating' UserForm
 

Afternoon!
Does anyone know if it is possible to create a UserForm, which then
'floats' on the screen.
ie, you can still play around on the Excel sheet behind it, whilst it
is still on the screen.
Ta,:confused:

Paul,

You can do this in Excel 2000 and later by showing the form modelessly.
E.g.,

Userform1.Show vbModeless

Hi

Modeless forms are available in excel 2000 and up.
There is a workaround example for Excel97 on Stephen Bullens site.
See Modelessform.zip
