G'day there Tom,

The control will need to be installed on the computer where it is used. It
is not embedded in the file.

Dammit!! I thought that may be the case, but wasn't sure
whether I could statically link it some how. Obviously not. I'm sure
Microsoft did it that way on purpose, just 'cause they hate me.

A userform does not support hyperlinks. John Walkenbach has a workaround:

Hmmm... I don't understand why it wouldn't, but if that's
the case I'm off to see what Mr Walkenbach has to say.

He also has articles on dynamically adding controls and so forth including
class module to handle the events for multiple controls (commandbuttons in
the article, but suitable for all MS Forms 2.0 controls - although only
native events):

Now THAT will come in handy!!!

Thanks very much for your reply, Tom. I appreciate it greatly.
Dunno what date it is where you are, but over here it's 25 Dec. So Merry
Xmas! Take care and perhaps we'll speak/type again.

Thanks once more.
