go to Stephen Bullen's site and download formfun.zip and unzip it. The
workbook shows you code for doing all kinds of things with userforms
including what you ask.

Juts be aware that without the Caption (removes the Menu controls) yo
will not be able to move the Userform. Post back if you need code t
move it

Can I have a user form with no Header/Caption Bar ?
 

I'm trying, but I'm not sure which code I need or don't need. I suspect it is
just a few lines. Any help on which, if I just want a form with no
caption/header bar?

I plan to use mouse move to close box.
Or is there a better way to put a short user message up, with out using msgbox,
more like a splash screen.
