Correct code to Exit Userform, with out Unloading data
What is the best way to close off a userform without unloading the data.
Userform.hide simply hides the userform, but is this good enough as a close? As it still stores the data in the userform if something was placed there. Corey.... |

Hide is the only way to dismiss the form and persist the data, Unload removes it from memory and returns the controls to their design time state and it cannot be read -- HTH Nick Hodge Microsoft MVP - Excel Southampton, England DTHIS www.nickhodge.co.uk "Corey" wrote in message ...

Correct code to Exit Userform, with out Unloading data
So to clear the data that was entered and to use the .hide,
The userform should be coded to clear all values upon Initializing to remove any values that were entered previously if the userform is then re-.shown? Corey.... "Nick Hodge" wrote in message ...

A normal procedure would be 'UserForm1 initialisation (Either design time or runtime) UserForm1.Show (Shows and loads into memory, fires UserForm_Initialize() event) 'do what you want with the form UserForm1.Hide 'Read all the controls and place or do with them what you will Unload UserForm1 'This removes all the values and renders form unreadable (out of memory) 'Start routine again -- HTH Nick Hodge Microsoft MVP - Excel Southampton, England DTHIS www.nickhodge.co.uk "Corey" wrote in message ...

Hiding keeps the form in memory and therefore the values in any controls (You will have to do something with them, nothing happens automatically). Providing you DON'T unload it you can continue to use the same values, or different ones if you either re-show the form or change the values/properties of controls in code. Once you unload the form, the data in the controls are gone, forever and you can do nothing with them until you re-show the form and reset the values of the controls, etc. -- HTH Nick Hodge Microsoft MVP - Excel Southampton, England DTHIS www.nickhodge.co.uk "Corey" wrote in message ...

I think the key here is nothing (updating cells, etc) happen automatically, you need to set the values on the sheet from the hidden form, then when you have done this and need the values no longer, unload the form. -- HTH Nick Hodge Microsoft MVP - Excel Southampton, England DTHIS www.nickhodge.co.uk "Corey" wrote in message ...

Correct code to Exit Userform, with out Unloading data
If controls are linked to cells, then values are updated when the cells
change - no relation to unload or hide if you use code to write values to cells, then when the code runs the cells are updated. No relation to unload or hide What Nick was say is that a lot of people hide the userform (modal) so the code that called then can continue to run. In that code, there is code to utililize the values in the controls of the userform such as v = Userform1.Textbox1.Value when done extracting values, then the userform is unloaded. If you don't need to access any values from the calling code, then by all means, unload the userform to close it rather than using the hide command. Understand what each method done, then utilize them appropriately to achieve the results you need. -- regards, Tom Ogilvy "Corey" wrote in message ...
