Hide/Erase The "X" Close Button On UserForm
Oct 26, 2008
I would like to modify one of my UserForms so the close button [the "X" in the upper corner] will not be visible. [It does not matter if this must involve hiding the upper the title bar - or not - as long as the little "X" will vanish].
I would like to point out that I DO NOT want to disable the "X" fronm closing the form [that I know how to accomplish] I just want to get rid of it. I have been told to look for a good example in a file called: "NoCloseButton.zip", created by Stephen Bullen, at http://www.bmsltd.ie/Excel/Default.htm but had no success in finding the file.

I have a fairly elaborate close-down routine for my workbook.
1) Quit out of fullscreen (restore initial state of excel before saving)
2) Hide all sheets but one (enforces cant do anything unless macros enabled)
3) Automatically save without a prompt
4) Close the workbook
I've researched it well and implemented it to the point where it works, but only if the user clicks the excel application close button -- the "X" in the titlebar (hence not in fullscreen).
However, if I launch the process via a userform button click, then for some reason the
DisplayFullscreen = False, Sheets hiding, and save codes have no effect (fullscreen persists, sheets are not hidden, no file is saved) in the Workbook_BeforeClose() subroutine....
I repeat: all the above works fine if process was launched by "native" excel button, but does not have any effect if launched from a userform commandbutton. (?!?!) any ideas what's going on?
I'm including my code so you can get an idea how it's structured.... by it's pretty "by the forum" as far as I can tell...
Private Sub CloseButton_Click()
If(1) Then
'Method 1 - close directly from userform command button
With ThisWorkbook
'.RunAutoMacros (xlAutoClose)
.Close
End With
Else
'Method 2 - set a timer to call a function to perform
' "ThisWorkbook.close" in a function outside of the userform
CustMenuCloseTimer = Now + TimeSerial(0, 0, 2)
Application .OnTime CustMenuCloseTimer, "CustMenu_CloseAction"
End If
End Sub

I have a User form which had a button which redirects me to a certain sheet, e.g. If I wanted to go to stock sheet I would click cmdViewStock and it would open the stock worksheet meaning it works, but the userform still stays open. Is there a way in which once I click the cmdViewStock it opens the Stock worksheet but closes the userform automatically straight after?
Here is the current code I have for the button:
Code:
Private Sub cmdViewStock_Click()
Sheets("Stock").Select
Sheets("Stock").Range("B4").Select
End Sub

most of the users always like to click the close (x) button on the top right of the userform ... and when that happens the application that was set hidden will remains hidden and other users in the network cannot access it ... eventhough i've placed an exit button inside the userform, users still prefer to click the x button.

I have this VBA set for a workbook_open event:
Public Sub Workbook_Open()
PromotionOrNewHireForm.Show
Sheet1.Select
End Sub
...which works, but I would prefer to have the form hide (or unload, exit, etc.) once the toggle button in that userform is first selected. I've tried a few things but none of them have worked. BTW, the userform has two toggle buttons, which run the following:
Private Sub ToggleButton1_Click()
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A4").Value = "Promotion"
End Sub
Private Sub ToggleButton2_Click()
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A4").Value = "New Hire"
End Sub
Also, once it closes, I'd like it to move on to the next macro depending on whether "Promotion" or "New Hire" is selected. Not sure if a workbook_change event is the best way to handle that.

I need to know the command to close a workbook. I have used the information found here: http://www.ozgrid.com/VBA/userform-close.htm to disable closing the workbook via the upper right "X", but I need a button that, when clicked, simply closes the workbook instead.

What I would like to do is to be able to open a second workbook from a user form, preform some work on it then save and come back to the same place in the original user form.
So in steps:
1 : user clicks command button to open user form
2: user then clicks on command button on userform that opens 2nd workbook via a yes / no message box, but closes userform on 1st workbook (would be ideal if this could stay open, but hidden)
3: user then does work on 2nd workbook,
4: userform on 2nd workbook saves then activates the 1st workbook and reopens the userform
This is where no matter what I try I cant get the command button on the 1st userform to be clicked automatically so the yes / no message box appears.
This is part of the code in the 2nd sheet commandbutton that saves / closes / opens
Code:
Unload Me
ActiveWorkbook.save
Windows("ABC.xlsm").Activate
Sheets("Request Sheet").Activate
Call Sheets("Request Sheet").ForceClickOnBouttonXYZ
Call UserForm1.CommandButton6_Click 'this is where I cant get it to work!!
Windows("xyz.xlsm").Close
ABC is the 1st workbook
xyz is the 2nd workbook
This is the code on the 1st workbook I use to call on the 2nd workbook
Code:
Public Sub ForceClickOnBouttonXYZ() Call CommandButton1_Click End Sub

this has to be the easiest thing ever. I want to (on opening one file) open another, and hide it (the second file), and then when closing the first file, I want to close the second file as well....

I know how to add a save and close button but i do not know how to make it instantly available in every new workbook that i open. Currently i click the button and it looks for the macro in the first excel book that i created it in.

I have a large userform (Main) that the users enter data into. At the end of the data entry the users click OK and the data is transferred to a spreadsheet. I then ask the users if they want to add another record. If they click "Yes" all is OK. If they click "No" the userform should close and another "switchboard" type userform should open.
My problem is that try as I might I cannot get the (Main) userform to close. It only does so after the switchboard closes.
If I don't load the switchboard, main closes without issue.
I have left out the bulk of the data transferred to the "data" sheet in the code below.
Private Sub Main_OK_Button_Click()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Sheets("Data").Visible = True
Sheets("Data"). Range("F2").Value = Surname.Text
Dim result As VbMsgBoxResult
result = MsgBox("Do you wish to enter another record?", vbYesNo + vbInformation, "Continue...")
If result = vbNo Then
Main.URN.SetFocus
Unload Me
Else

I have a spreadsheet that has a button named Exit Requisition Program on it to close the application with. When the button is used everything is wonderful. All of the data on the sheet is saved and the application closes. I have a problem with some users clicking the red X without saving changes and that creates a big problem.
What I need to do is any one of several things.
1. Remove the red X completely.
2. Deactivate the red X.
3. Have a message box pop up instructing the user to use the Exit Button when the red X is used. Any one of the three methods listed above would work for me.

I have a useform that loads up with two buttons and I waat to force the user to chose one of the buttons. However, I have noticed that the user can just press the cross in the top right corner of the form to close the window and therefore not press either button.
Is there anyway I can stop the close form button working?

I have a function (courtesy of Walkanbach) to create a userform, very useful as it means I keep memory down as I can create the UF's as I go and tweak to suit.
I have been trying to get the userform to be removed when the user closes it. The close action in this case is the X button top right as this userform only has the userform itself and a listbox.
When I set the code for the event procedure it doesn't error, but nothing happens. The microsoft help pages seem to suggest that you can't remove a userform through vba, but I find that hard to believe. I've tried variations on the close procedure and all to no avail so far.
Dim xInt As Integer
With TempForm.CodeModule
xInt = .CountOfLines
.InsertLines xInt + 1, "Private Sub TempForm_Terminate()"
.InsertLines xInt + 2, "ThisWorkbook.VBProject.VBComponents.Remove TempForm"
.InsertLines xInt + 3, "End Sub"
End With

I've got a 'Control Panel' spreadsheet which is all based on UserForms. When a user clicks a particular button, it opens one of many separate 'Regional' sheets which they work in.
When the user closes the 'Regional' sheet, I would like the 'Control Panel' sheets userforms to show again. However I can find no way of doing this as it simply switches back to the 'Control Panel' sheet without loading the forms (as I had to hide the 'Control Panel' useforms to give them access to the 'Regional' sheet).

I am not sure if this can be done or not. I am displaying a userform non-modally (Modeless). It will remain in place while the workbook is open. I know how to stop the form from being removed if the user clicks on the close box (the X in the top-righthand corner). What I would like is to stop the X displaying at all. I heard that it might be possible in the Properties box, but cannot see it in Excel 2000.
Even better would be if I could hide the entire header of the user form, so that I could simulate the look of placing controls within an Autoshape. (I am producing a project for users of Excel 2000 onwards, and I understand that placing controls directly in a worksheet can cause problems in other versions, so I must use forms.)

I have the following code in a simple userform containing only a label:
Private Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
DoEvents
Sleep 4000
Unload Me
End Sub
When I invoke this as a single macro in a blank workbook and immediately change focus by pressing ALT+TAB to enter NotePad the userform is shown and exits normally after 4 seconds.
However, when I issue this code from within a larger macro, and hit ALT+TAB to Notepad, the excel application hangs on the displayed userform until I click back into Excel.
If required, I can happily send you the code as an attachment.
