Hi Guys
I have a multipage (3) userform(Usrfrm1) each page has 46 textboxes. On entry into a particular textbox on each page I want to launch another userform (Usrfrm2) which is a scripting dictionary that finally gives a unique code, on button click I want it to put the unique code into the multipage userform activetextbox.

Me.MultiPage1.Pages(Me.MultiPage1.Value).ActiveControl.Name
This gives me the textbox name of the activetextbox in the Multipage Userform...but

How do I get this value to be recognised in the other userform (Usrfrm2)?
 

Excel Facts

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
Wouldn't it be Usrfrm1.MultiPage1.Pages(Usrfrm1.MultiPage1.Value).ActiveControl.Name

Hope this helps..

Hi you could use the name of the userform but this is not the issue as Me does that job fine if I say

Commcode = Me.MultiPage1.Pages(Me.MultiPage1.Value).ActiveControl.Name

This is in Textbox26_Enter, so on entering TB26 Commcode = "Textbox26"

but I cannot export this value to Usrfrm2 because I want to say something like

Usrfrm1.Controls(Commcode).value = Usrfrm2.combobox3.value

Hope I'm being clear?
