Hi.

Is it possible to add a "help button" in a userform?? I mean, I have a lot of textbox that people have to put some data and some of the data need legend for everyone that use the sheets knows what to put in that textbox, so I wanted to put a "help button" that allows people to press that button and a new "pop window" appears and shows the meaning of the data that we need to insert there.

Am I being clear about what I need? :S

Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as time
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+2 to format cells as time. (Shift 2 is the @ sign).
Hi,
Try using the ControlTipText property for your Textboxes and see if this helps.

From VBA if you select one of your TextBoxes from the properties look for ControlTipText property and add the text you want to display e.g.

Enter Numeric Values Only

When your form is displayed & user hovers over textbox your prompt will be displayed.

Hope Helpful
