Default Multiple User Forms

"Marcotte A" wrote in message
...

1) Can you have multiple userforms in memory at the same time?


Yes

If so, can variables defined or by one form be passed to another (without

a global variable). eg. I will have one form for the user to select a
store; then the next form would have them enter sales data for that store.

You can either access a variable in the calling form from the called form or
vice cersa. In each case, the variable should be declared as a Public
variable within that form

For instnace

in useform1

Userform2.StoreName = Textbox1.Text

in userform2

Public StoreName As String

Private Sub Userform_Initialize()
Me.Textbox1.Text = StoreName
End Sub


2) What is a good way to organize code for forms? I understand that each

form has its own "module", but can code in these call functions and subs
from other userforms or other modules?

Yes, but you need to preceede it with the class name, for instance

Userform2.Macro_To_Do_something


3) Since each store is exactly the same, can I use a tabstrip? How does

VBA differentiate between the tabs? Like this?
Private Sub TabStrip1_Change()
Dim myTab as string
select case tabstrip1.value
case 0: myTab = "Sheet1"
case 1: myTab = "Sheet2"
End Select
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(myTab)
'code to input data
End With
End Sub


Not sure what you are tring to do. IF you just want to select which sheet,
radio buttons would be better than tabstrips.

4) What is a good site or book that discusses userforms? I've read the

MS article ("Lesson 11" I think) but am looking for a little bit more than
that.

Pass.
