    Hello Excel Geniuses',

    Hi there,

    The following addition should work if your TextBoxes are located on a UserForm (i.e. not on a WorkSheet):

    Hope this helps - please let me know how you get on.

    P. S. Use TextBox1.Activate if the TextBoxes are located on a worksheet

    Hi again,

    Many thanks for your feedback - glad I was able to help.

    As regards the UserForm changing size from one computer to another, the only thing that springs to mind is that the screen resolution on all of those computers might not be the same - sorry I can't think of anything else at the moment.

    Best regards,

    Greg M

    Not much better than the above code
    But darn useful if you have more textboxes.

    Re: UserForm changing size from one computer to another

    Is the userform size change affecting the layout of the controls?

    Re: UserForm changing size from one computer to another

    I think the common solution is to build userfoms in various sizes and choose one based on the monitor resolution, which you can query via Windows API.

    That's a lot of work, though, and an alternative might be to make it as compact as possible, and adding a vertical scroll if necessary to make all of the controls accessible.

    Re: UserForm changing size from one computer to another

    shg,

    Thanks for your reply - I have been noticing that a lot of folks claim to have a solution, yet none of them have been successful..

    I am afraid that your suggestion might be the Only Solution. This seems to be a long standing Issue... Maybe someone with VBA Savvy can finally figure a solution.

    Best Regards,

    John
