Userform intermittently not loading and then causing an issue with constant calculation.

Hello all,

This forum has been an absolute blessing to me for a long time now, answering the (seemingly) unanswerable. However, I have hit a stump with this one.

Preamable
The whole project is fairly sizable (though it's all relative) but has been developed to be fairly modular. I will just highlight the elements I expect pertain to the problem but please let me know if I need to broaden the explanation.
Also, I will try to use the correct terms, but my apologies in advance if I use the wrong label for something - I have learnt completely through online forums, often a risky proposition when it comes to having a robust understanding.

Steps before the problem
I have an Excel ('03) front end with an Access ('03) database.
1.The data is recalled from the database and placed in the ReviewSheet.
2. I then double click on the ID number, which pulls the information for the relevant record on to the UpdateSheet.
3. Doing so then opens the UpdateForm.
This all populates fine.

Breakdown of the problem
Occassionally the userform appears (that is, the outline appears, with the header and red X) but is solid grey in the centre. If I hit the red X to close it then appears normally. However, when I close that instance of the form (which reverts to the ReviewSheet) and I am then left with the workbook constantly recalculating. At no other time does this happen, the worksheet_Activate event for ReviewSheet doesnt have anything that would lead to looping (to my knowledge).

Checks completed
  • Stepped through all the relevant code
  • Stripped out all additional, or nice-to-have, features
  • Tested a variety of conditions

Last notes
I expect the code to be messy and somewhat inefficient - any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Can Excel fill bagel flavors?
You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
Sort by date Sort by votes
I'm not sure if this is the answer, I was having strange intermittent problems with userforms and such also would leave excel crashed (or in some kind of never ending loop) a few months ago, after weeks of scouring the internet I found that .Rowsource was the issue I went through the code and replaced all instances of this with list property and this fixed the problems....Don't know why or how but it works perfectly now. might be wort a try??
i.e
Code: 
Me.ComboBox1.RowSource = [COLOR=#800000]"Shift"
[/COLOR]Me.ComboBox2.RowSource = [COLOR=#800000]"Overview_Reason"[/COLOR][COLOR=#800000]
[/COLOR]
changed to
Code: 
Me.ComboBox1.List = Sheets([COLOR=#800000]"control sheet"[/COLOR]).Range([COLOR=#800000]"Shift"[/COLOR]).Value
Me.ComboBox2.List= Sheets([COLOR=#800000]"control sheet"[/COLOR]).Range([COLOR=#800000]"Overview_Reason"[/COLOR]).Value

Good luck

Thanks Melewie, I'll test it and see how it goes. Intermittent issues are always fun to try and resolve.

For the named range does it need the sheet specified?

Interestingly it seems to have stopped the exit function from working.

Code: 
Private Sub UserForm_QueryClose(cancel As Integer, CloseMode As Integer)
'sub to take control of clicking red x
  
Dim ans As Integer
On Error GoTo 0
If CloseMode = vbFormControlMenu Then ' cancel normal X button behavior
    cancel = True
    'Confirm user wants to close
    ans = MsgBox("Are you sure you want to close?" & vbNewLine & "Remember, nothing will be saved.", vbYesNo, "Leaving so soon?")
    If ans = vbYes Then
        Application.ScreenUpdating = False
        Unload UpdateForm
        'ReviewSheet.Visible = True
        ReviewSheet.Activate
        Application.ScreenUpdating = True
        Exit Sub
    Else
    End If
End If
End Sub

Just in case anyone comes across this in the future, Melewie's suggestion appears to have worked.

As for failing to exit, I just added UpdateForm.Hide to the sub.

I have no idea why rowsource and userforms don't get on, does any smarter person than me on here have any ideas about this?

Not been on here for a couple of days, did you get the exit function working?

----------------------

edit just seen your last post, glad to of helped

Ahhhhhhhhh, turns out it isnt fixed. Just had the same error; userform draws outer border but grey inside, clicking red X then causes userform to be displayed as normal (and triggers expected behaviour on attempting to close). Following that just a constant recalculation. Have to assume I am triggering some sort of loop but cant find it!

Any help would be appreciated.
