I have a userform that works perfectly the first time it's used, but
the Worksheet Activate for the worksheet(s) isn't firing when the
command button on the userform is used to return the user to the
previous worksheet - regardless of which worksheet they chose first.
Should I use a toggle button instead? I don't know how to code a
toggle button to toggle between two worksheets. Should I have
something in Deactivate for the Userform? Am I completely off
target?

REAL ESTATE INDEX WORKSHEET
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
BuildingsForm.Show vbModeless
Application.ErrorCheckingOptions.BackgroundCheckin g = False
With ActiveSheet
If .Columns("d:e").Hidden = False Then
.Columns("d:e").Hidden = True
.Columns("f:f").Hidden = False
End If
End With

End Sub

USERFORM
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
Call AddMinBox
If ActiveSheet.Name = "Real Estate Index" Then
cmdBldgTab.Visible = True
togEditParty.Visible = True
cmdRealEstateTab.Visible = False
End If

If ActiveSheet.Name = "Buildings" Then
cmdBldgTab.Visible = False
togEditParty.Visible = False
cmdRealEstateTab.Visible = True
End If
End Sub

COMMAND BUTTONS
Private Sub cmdBldgTab_Click()
'Visible when Real Estate Index worksheet is active
Sheets("Buildings").Select
Range("A1").Select
End Sub


Private Sub cmdRealEstateTab_Click()
'Visible when Buildings worksheet is active
Sheets("Real Estate Index").Select
Range("B1").Select
End Sub

It is working for me but I had to comment out lines below because I didn't
have these objects

' Call AddMinBox
If ActiveSheet.Name = "Real Estate Index" Then
' cmdBldgTab.Visible = True
' togEditParty.Visible = True
' cmdRealEstateTab.Visible = False


Try commenting out the same lines and see if it works. It may be something
in the AddMinBox routing that is causing the problem.

I still can't get it to work. I've even run the Clean Project code
stripper on it. As much as I hate to, I think I'm going to resort
back to having separate user forms on the two worksheets. Groan.
Thanks for taking a look though.

I think you should give it one more shot. And I don't mean to take out a gun
and shoot your computer.

I think something else in your workbook is causing a problem. why don't you
do exactly what I did and start from scratch. Put the code that you posted
in a new spreadsheet. Take the code from your posting so it is exactly the
same as what I did. Comment out the same lines I did. Then run the code and
see if it works.

Then slowly add the rest of your code until it stops working.

Another thing you can try is to add break point into your code. Put a break
point at the SUB statement in each of your functions by clink with the mouse
on the line and then pressing F9. The line will turn yellow red. Then run
your code by pressing F5. When a break point is reached the code will stop
and turn the line yellow. Then press F5 again to continue or F8 to step
through the code.

I suspect the workheet change is working but something else is failing. If
you have any ON Error stements in your code comment them out during debugging
or change the setting in VBA menu tools - Options - General - Error Trapping.
the ON Error statements could be masking the real cause of the problem.

OMG. I am a total freaking idiot. I had .show in my deactivate
worksheet instead of hide. I've spent hours reading it for what it
should say instead of what it did say. Thank you thank you thank you
for talking me off the ledge. Have a wonderful weekend.
