Hi Hotbird;
For example:
Private Declare Function AnimateWindow Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long _
, ByVal dwTime As Long, ByVal dwFlags As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function FindWindow Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindowA" _
(ByVal lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName As String) As Long
Private Const AW_HOR_POSITIVE = &H1
Private Const AW_HOR_NEGATIVE = &H2
Private Const AW_VER_POSITIVE = &H4
Private Const AW_VER_NEGATIVE = &H8
Private Const AW_CENTER = &H10
Private Const AW_HIDE = &H10000
Private Const AW_ACTIVATE = &H20000
Private Const AW_SLIDE = &H40000
Private Const AW_BLEND = &H80000
Public objForm As UserForm1

Sub RollDiagPos()
Dim lngHwnd As Long
Dim lngRet As Long
Set objForm = New UserForm1
lngHwnd = FindWindow(vbNullString, objForm.Caption)
lngRet = AnimateWindow(lngHwnd, 600, AW_HOR_POSITIVE + _
AW_VER_POSITIVE + AW_ACTIVATE)
End Sub

Have just found this sample API code, which I have cut and pasted to a
Module attached to a blank spreadsheet. When I attempt to run the
Form_Load
procedure, it returns Compile error: invalid use of Me keyword. Being new
to API programmming, I am unsure how to run the sample. Have tried
attaching a Form, but to no effect. Can anyone point me in the right
direction?

Many thanks

flag can be used with roll or slide animation.

flag can be used with roll or slide animation.
Const AW_VER_POSITIVE = &H4 'Animates the window from top to bottom. This
flag can be used with roll or slide animation.
Const AW_VER_NEGATIVE = &H8 'Animates the window from bottom to top. This
flag can be used with roll or slide animation.

AW_HIDE is used or expand outward if the AW_HIDE is not used.
