Is it possible to open the VBA form with a link in a sheet and to pass variable from a cell to the VBA form?
 

I am new in excel VBA programming and now facing a problem is that:

I have a worksheet containing the company details and each company
contain a unique ID. I have create a VBA form to list the detail of a
specified company using their company ID (I am now hardcode the ID in
the form at this moment). I want to allow users to open the VBA form
to see the company detail by clicking the company ID in the worksheet.
But I do not know how the form link with the company ID in the
worksheet.

Is it possible to call the VBA form with a link? In addition, is it
possible to pass the ID from the worksheet to the form? Or any other
solutions.

Thanks for helping.

You would use the RefEdit control, and when the user clicks in this
control,. they can access the worksheet, so to select a cell. You then just
pickup that value, and get any details associated with it.

RefEdit doesn't automatically appear on the toolbox, but you can get it by
right-clicking on the toolbox, and clicking Additional Controls. Then scroll
down that list to the 'RefEdit Ctrl', and check that item. It will then
appear on your toolbox.

But I have to ask, why bother. If the data is in a worksheet, you can use
DataForms on that worksheet, and Excel does it for you.
