Default philosophical question about programming best practices

Hello all,

I am looking for perspective on VBA (and general programming) methods,
specifically:

In an application I'm writing in VBA, I have multiple forms. These
forms run different utilities, but they share the same drop down
lists, input fields, and cancel buttons, among other things. The forms
are kept separate as different users require different utilities.

Is it good programming practice to utilize the same name and code for
a drop down list of months, for example, which would appear on
multiple forms, or should I just duplicate the code, renaming the
variables?

Pros and cons eagerly sought...
