I have a spreadsheet that is to be run entirely from a userform. I
currently have it set up so when it is opened, the userform pops up and
excel is minimized. I also tried adding code that someone had posted,
to minimize the form to the taskbar. It worked well except it messed
up some of my other code. I would get an error every time I tried to
close my form. I have it set up to ask the user if they are sure they
want to close. But for some reason with this minimizing code, I get an
error telling me that a variable is not declared.

Anyhow, the point is. I want to be able to run this userform as
independent from the spreadsheet as possible, with the ability to
minimize it to the taskbar, and restore it from the taskbar, without
opening the related workbook. I would also like the ability to open
and run other workbooks with the userform open (minimized or not). Is
this possible? thanks.
