Hey, it's TMKTECH again. I'm double-dipping today.

Question: Is there anyway to reset the internal object counters (sheets, shapes, textboxes, etc.) within EXCEL.

From a development standpoint, some of my modules have been are several years old and the object numbers are getting quite large.

Thanks again!

Why do you need to reset them? You probably assign meaningful names to these objects anyway when you create them, so the initial numbered name is just temporary.

Rob, I think I had a braincramp. I used a drawsing object for a checkbox rather than a CONTROL (which can be named). I thought I had seen somewhere also that the system name had to be referenced by VBA code (hence my question), but I can't seem to find it now.

Thanks for you reply!
