want to create a userform on the fly. the userform will be created beforehand,
but how would i add a series labels to the existing userform? don't know how
many there will be. tried the addlabel method, but can't get it to work.

Gary,

Point of clarification. Do you want to add the labels to the Userform
created on the fly?

Gary,

Here is some code to show how to add controls

Dim newButton As MSForms.Control
Select Case True
Case chkText.Value
Set newButton = Me.Controls.Add("Forms.Textbox.1")
newButton.Name = "New Textbox"
Case chkButton.Value
Set newButton = Me.Controls.Add("Forms.CommandButton.1")
newButton.Caption = "newCmd"
Case chkListbox.Value
Set newButton = Me.Controls.Add("Forms.Listbox.1")
newButton.Name = "lstTemp"
Case chkCheckbox.Value
Set newButton = Me.Controls.Add("Forms.Checkbox.1")
newButton.Caption = "Another Checkbox"
End Select

With newButton
.Left = 100
.Top = 50
.Visible = True
End With

but you still have to have some code behind the form to process the control
and this is convoluted. Why not just create them at design time?

thanks bob:

what i am trying to do is create a form containing a list of names with a
checkbox next to each so a user can select which names to remove from the list.
the list is contained on a separate sheet and won't always have the same number
of names.

i was able to create the from using your examples. now i need to figure which
name is selected, but since the form is created on the fly, i'm not sure what
the name of each textbox or checkbox is.

is there a better way?

to parse the list of check boxes to see which names to delete.

Gary,

you could create a control array, and after creating the checkboxes, check
it through the app event


Dim mcolEvents As Collection

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim cBtnEvents As clsUserFormEvents
Dim ctl As msforms.Control

'create your controls here

Set mcolEvents = New Collection

For Each ctl In Me.Controls
If TypeName(ctl) = "CheckBox" Then
Set cChkEvents = New clsUserFormEvents
Set cChkEvents.mCBGroup = ctl
mcolEvents.Add cBtnEvents
End If
Next

End Sub


Add a Class (call it clsUserFormEvents) module

Option Explicit

Public WithEvents mCBGroup As msforms.CheckBox

Private Sub mCBGroup _Click()
MsgBox mCBGroup.Caption & " has been pressed"
End Sub
