Whats the differance between the userform_activate vs. userform_initialize commands and if both are present in a user form, which one gets called first?
Thanks
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
initialize occurs first when the form is actually loaded into memory, and activate occurs whenever it is shown.
If you hide then show a form, the activate event will fire again, but initialize will not.
