Hi
I inserted UserForm and some other Form Controls such as textboxes/labels etc. I changed the name of each control for example TextBox1 to Mybox, Label1 to Mylabel etc. I also changed the name of the UserForm from UserForm1 to MyUserForm. Now, when I go to coding window, I see on the left hand side, the list of all Form Controls with the new names I name them, except UserForm, it still have the same name, which is UserForm. Why not the name I changed it to (MyUserName)



Code:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()


End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
That code is used within the module associated to the userform so it doesnt need its name. It just runs when you initialise the userform. Try this, it should show the name:

Code:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
MsgBox Me.Name
End Sub

Thanks for your reply. No I mean the code should be like this
Code:
Private Sub MyUserForm_initialize()
End Sub

No. The Userform events are always Userform_eventname no matter what your form is called.

Kind of like how all the name of all the sheet/workbook events are preceded with Sheet/Workbook rather than the name of the sheet/workbook they are for.
