Hey all!
I am somewhat new to the world of excel programming, so wanted to
get some help from you guys on a problem I am working on. I am trying
to create a utility for users which uses multiple worksheets in a
workbook and I also have a menu at the start to guide the user to the
excel sheet he wants to use. However, I am not too happy with the
'look and feel' of the utility I have developed (for instance, a user
has to scroll down within a worksheet to see what all is in there). I
feel that I can do this better if I design a userform and have the
user form interact with the user. So, specifically, what I want to do
is:
1. When the user opens the excel workbook, a user form pops up, and
that is the only thing the user sees
2. Based on the options the user selects (different tabs within the
same userform) the userform itself pulls out relevant information from
different sheets without ever showing that sheet itself
Bottom line, I want to be able to avoid direct interaction of the user
with the worksheets. I would like the user to be able to interact only
with the userform. Is this possible?
I hope I am clear enough, most times I can not translate thoughts in
my mind clearly!
