[FAQ's: OD] General Information About VBA UserForms

UserForms have similar events and properties as Forms have in VB6/VB.NET/C# with a few exceptions...

• VBA does not have a Menu Editor for creating menus on UserForms. You can use the CommandBar object to
• create or re-use menus and toolbars.

• There is no Control Box in the UserForm's Titlebar. So that means no minimize or maximize titlebar buttons.

• In Office VBA a UserForm does not have a Form_Load event but they do have the UserForm_Initialize event which
• is similar to the Form_Load event in other programming languages.

• There is limited ActiveX COM control support in the VBA toolbox. You can, however, add other MS ActiveX COM,
• like from VB 6, and Third-Party ActiveX COM controls but you must distribute them with your Office file.

• VBA UserForms dont support drawing any graphics without the use of Win32 API calls.

• Windows XP Visual Styles (XP Themes) are not supported on VBA UserForms.
