Hi,

Have built a Userform for a data entry application, but I need to add some help information (such as support details etc). For aesthetic reasons I don't want to add another button to the form itself, rather I want to add a help button beside the Close (X) button on the form's Title Bar. I'm having trouble seeing where I can do this, since clearly I can't draw a button onto the title bar in the VBE.

I'm thinking along the lines of various apps I've seen which have the little '?' icon button in the title bar. Any ideas?

Cheers,
Dave

Try looking at the form's 'WhatsThisButton' property. Setting it to True will make the Question Mark appear next to the X on the title bar - but it seems like a task to get it to work - need to make help files...here's a link that kind of explains it... good luck.


&quot;It's more like it is now, than it ever has been.&quot;
