Modifying existing dynamic questionnaire

Hi all,

so I have a dynamic macro based questionnaire which allows me to set the parameters of the questionnaire, such as the type of question and answer being provided - whether the answer is a radio button, check box, or free type text box. I can then click on the "create questionnaire button" and it opens up and saves the questionnaire to a separate excel file.

The original file also then allows me to collate the responses. This works well but it is limited and I'd like to expand the capabilities.

I'd like to be able to:


  1. add further options in the control type legends: i.e. instead of radio, check, text I would also like to add lists.
  2. make the questionnaire dynamic, so depending on a previous - e.g. a "no" answer (which can be answered by the user selecting the a radio button) it will remove unnecessary questions.
  3. add weightings to certain questions so that once the questionnaire completes the weightings are averaged and a specific output is shown.

can someone please help modify the vba so I can do this?

here's the code to create the questionnaire:

Code:
Sub evtCreateQuestionnaire()    
    Dim lngCtrlLeft         As Long
    Dim lngCtrlTop          As Long
