Get control of a Userform by the Name
 

I want to change the text of a form.
I know the name of the form and the name of the control in it.

How to get the control of a form if I know the Name?

Below post refers to adding a form. But I already have a form, just
need the control of that!

Get control of a Userform by the Name
 

If you are talking about a VBA user from in VBA window press F4 (View
properties window) and click on the control. The name will be in the
Name property.

If you have a worksheet user form you should be able to click on the
object and the name will be in the box next to the formula box (fx)

Your description is somewhat confusing... can you give more detail about
what you are actually trying to do?

I want to change the text of a form.

What do you mean by the "text of a form"? I will assume you mean the
Caption that appears on the title bar of the form.

Try some code like the following:

Sub ChangeCaption()
Dim FormName As String
Dim NewCaption As String
Dim UF As UserForm
Dim N As Long
Dim B As Boolean
FormName = "UserForm2"
NewCaption = "This Is New"
Load UserForm1

VBA.UserForms.Add FormName

For N = 0 To VBA.UserForms.Count - 1
If StrComp(VBA.UserForms(N).Name, FormName, _
vbTextCompare) = 0 Then
VBA.UserForms(N).Caption = NewCaption
B = True
Exit For
End If
Next N
If B = True Then
VBA.UserForms(N).Show
End If
End Sub


The form whose caption you want to change must already be loaded into
memory, but not necessarily visible. To load a form into memory
without making it visible, use either of

Load UserForm2

' OR

VBA.UserForms.Add "UserForm2"
