Is there a way for me to place a form on a spreadsheet so it doesn't move when cells are moved and I don't have to click a button or change something to make the form appear and stay in place? I'm trying to create a dash board using information entered into a spreadsheet so the form functions will evaluate everything then display the answers though I'm having trouble figuring out how to make a form appear after I've created it in a certain location then making it stay in that location.

Thank you for you help it's much appreciated :)

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
I was able to get the form to open when the work book opened though is there a way to lock it to a specific place on the workbook and also make it so you can make changes to the worksheet without having to close the form?

Hi Justin,

1. I’m not sure if it possible to “Lock” form to worksheet .
2. If you change form’s “ShowModal” property to “False”, then you can make changes to the worksheet without having to close the form.

I'm pretty certain you are correct as I've looked everywhere and can't find anything that says you can drag a form to a specific spot and it'll stay there :) I didn't know about the showmodal property though and really appreciate the information as that is something I will use in the future :) Thank you very much for your response today!!! :)
