Changing object properties permanently at runtime
 

Hi,

I'm having trouble changing the properties of objects permanently at
runtime. Specifically, I am trying to make a commandbutton visible at
runtime. This works fine, but when I reset the VBA code, the
commandbutton returns to it's state prior to running the code.

Thanks for any help anyone can give.

David,
Yes, that is the difference in meaning between "Design Time" and "Run Time".
If you want a property to be set for the next time you open that workbook,
you need to change it the Design time.

Hi Nick,

I understand that, but is it possible to change a design time property
at runtime?

Hi David,

Sub Test()
Dim dForm As UserForm

Set dForm = ThisWorkbook.VBProject.VBComponents("Userform1").D esigner
dForm.CommandButton2.Caption = Time

End Sub

You can't do this while Userform1 is loaded (AFAIK). Can also add/delete
controls.

(You'll need trust access to vb projects in xl2002+)
