Data Form
Thanks, that helps alot.
However, I need help making the form it appears. From the spreadsheet where I have all the data, I can go to form, data, and a form appears from which I can enter data. This is what I would like to do from the form I create. I would like to have several fields, with data valadation in place. Thanks. -- Jeff "Brotha Lee" wrote: Jeff, 1) Open the visual basic editor (ALT + F11) 2) in the right pane you will see your vBA projects 3) Select your VBA project (for exampe VBAProject (Book1)) from the right side pane and right click 4) Select Insert - Userform 5) Built your userform 6) To have the userform displayed each time the workbook is opened goto the Microfsoft Excel Object called "ThisWorkbook" 7) in the codepane select Workbook (from the upper left corner) and select Open from the upper right combobox 8) put the following code the Private Sub Workbook_Open() UserForm1.Show End Sub HTH, Brotha lee "Jeff" wrote: How would I create a data form which opens/appears upon opening of spreadsheet? -- Jeff |

If you don't need a specialized form you could use the built in Data Form
from the Data menu. If you want it to open automatically then add this bit of code to the OPEN event of the workbook in VB Private Sub Workbook_Open() ActiveSheet.ShowDataForm End Sub Mike "Jeff" wrote: Thanks, that helps alot.
