Periodically (but quite regularly) when I try to open a user-form it will open up but be blank. If I click the Esc key the form will fill but from that point onward (to click buttons or close the form) I must click the Esc key again before it will accept each action. Also, if I have VBE open it also does not accept any input (breakpoints, typing in the immediate window, etc.) unless I click Esc between keystrokes. Saving & reopening the from in Excel does not affect the resolve it

Any thoughts or recommendations.
thanks in advance

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying

Additional note to this, almost every time I open the VBE this happens (it may open fine if done once the WB opens but before opening the VBE)
