    Resolved *Resolved* Excel VBE - Grid Off?

    Is it possible to turn the snap-to-grid function off in the Excel VBE? I can find the options to alter the grid size and turn the grid lines off, but I can't see how you can turn the snap-to-grid function off.

    Cheers
    -Rob

    For me it's shown as "Align to grid" immediately under the other grid options.

    That doesn't turn the snap-to-grid off though. It just aligns the selected object to the grid. What I need is to turn the snap-to-grid function off completely.

    From the VB Editor - Tools > Options > General tab > uncheck
    "Align Controls to Grid" and enter your grid unit points.
