I can't find a way to modify this text in a form
(of this VBA Calendar / Date Picker: Trevor Eyre

I tried these:
- search "Select Date" in the underlying VBA code: no results.
- double click on that graphical text: I get the selection that you see in this screenshot (the whole object)

What/where else can I try?

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
That is the Caption of the userform.

you have selected a frame that is the size of the entire userform, not the userform window itself

You selected a Frame, not the Userform.

Click the title bar, or use the dropdown at the top of the Properties window.

Click the title bar, or use the dropdown at the top of the Properties window.

"Title bar": what do you mean? if I click or double-click the text "Select Date", the frameCalendar frame get selected.

"dropdown at the top of the Properties window": I looked at every "label" item and there's no one with caption Select Date". Even the other items seems to not have that caption.

I'm lost :(

Ahhh!! thanks Fluff!!

For some reason the drop down list, after I click on any graphical element, changes into a long list of items not including "CalendarForm".
In order to see it again, I have to close and reopen the Excel file and VBE window.
Do you know how to see it again without reopening the Excel/VBE?
