Excel VBA - Basics videos | Excel VBA Part 21 - User Forms

Excel VBA Part 21 - User Forms

Designing a User Form in VBA is a great way to allow you users to interact with your workbook. This video teaches you how to create forms, how to add controls and manipulate their properties and how to add code the events of the form to make it respond to user actions. You'll also get an insight into how much code goes into performing even very simple validation to control what your users can do with the form.

See our full range of VBA training resources, or test your knowledge of VBA with one of our VBA skills assessment tests.

Hello Sir,

I would like to thank you for the wonderful training on all the topics which are posted on this webiste.

I'm trying to learn Excel VBA Introduction Part 21 - User Forms, however unable to proceed with this video, because whenever i click on "Additional control" from tools/toolbox option, nothing happens ( i mean window doesn't pop up). As mentioned in video, I also tried to download Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 Common Controls. However after installing this nothing worked.

I currently have MicroSoft office Home and Student 2016 installed on my computer with 64 bit.

Could you please help me resolve this problem.

Regards,

Naresh Rameshwar

Hi Naresh,

I haven't encountered this problem myself but it seems that you're not alone! There are several suggestions on how to fix the problem at the following pages:

I hope one of these works for you!
