Does Userform exist?
Thanks for your advice Chip.

Hi Chip Thanks for the reply, the macro needs to be run against different (new) workbooks every time so there is not one workbook that the users will always use. However, I take your point that importing modules into people's personal.xls workbooks is bad program design. Would I therefore be better to have a workbook with the sole purpose of containing common macros that opens on startup? Thanks Andy "Chip Pearson" wrote: There is no way with conditional compilation to determine whether a userform exists. Why are you assuming that the form should be in the user's personal.xls workbook? This is bad program design. Personal.xls is, by definition, where users put the own personal code. Why don't you put the form in your workbook, so you can be assured that it exists. -- Cordially, Chip Pearson Microsoft MVP - Excel Pearson Software Consulting, LLC www.cpearson.com "Andy" wrote in message ... Hi All I have a macro that makes use of a UserForm for gathering data from the user. While the userform should always exist on the users' machines this might not always be the case. Is anybody aware of a way of checking to see if a UserForm exists in the Personal.xls workbook so I can handle such instances? If it doesn't then there is obviously a compile error so I have had a look at the #const and #if... directives but can't figure it out. Thanks Andy |
