Could someone tell me what is wrong with the following code snippet. At the
end, the form still remains visible. I have tried inserting
elliottinput.hide before the unload but it still is visible.

elliottInput.Show
flname = elliottInput.TextBox25.Value
' check that a data path to directory has been entered
Do
If Not bOK Then Exit Sub
If elliottInput.TextBox26.Value < "" Then Exit Do
MsgBox " A path to the data file directory must be entered "
elliottInput.TextBox26.SetFocus
elliottInput.TextBox26.SelStart = 0
elliottInput.TextBox26.SelLength = 1000
elliottInput.Show
Loop
If elliottInput.ListBox2.Value = "BACKTEST" Then
sd = elliottInput.TextBox3.Value
Else
sd = "01/01/1901"
End If
pp = elliottInput.TextBox1.Value
lrtr = elliottInput.TextBox4.Value
urtr = elliottInput.TextBox18.Value
sp = elliottInput.TextBox24.Value
dataPath = elliottInput.TextBox26.Value
antype = elliottInput.ListBox2.Value
lors = elliottInput.ListBox3.Value
If elliottInput.TextBox27.Value < "" Then
edate = elliottInput.TextBox27.Value
Else
edate = "31/12/2099"
End If
Unload elliottInput

The form works ok and all data are properly collected but it won't unload
till the end of the program

Thanks
Chris

You have this line *within the Do...Loop*
elliottInput.Show

Perhaps poor old Excel gets confused
