Default locking and unlocking a textbox using command buttons

I have a userform with a textbox (TextBox1) on it linked to a cell in the
spreadsheet.

I have two command buttons on the form : cmdLock and cmdUnlock

What I am looking for is for code for the cmd buttons which will lock and
unlock the textbox for editting and will also toggle the lock and unlock
buttons from being Enabled True or False depending on whether the textbox is
locked or not.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Roger

Roger

You may be able to do it with one commandbutton with the following
code:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
TextBox1.Enabled = Not TextBox1.Enabled
TextBox1.Locked = Not TextBox1.Locked
End Sub

You may prefer to buttons if the enabling and locking are not always
in synch, but, the two lines in the procedure above should get you
started.

Good luck

Ken
