Can anyone help? I'm using the following code to create and populate textboxes on a userform:
Code:
Dim ct As Integer
Dim txtB1 As Control
Dim lbl1 As Control
Dim r As Integer 'Database Row
Dim c As Integer 'Database Column
Dim t As Integer 'Top Position on screen
Dim l As Integer 'Left Position on screen
ct = Sheets("Database").Range("C18") 'Counts number of Branches on Database
'APRIL
'Create Textboxes
r = 20
c = 4
t = 84
l = 87
For i = 1 To ct
Set txtB1 = Controls.Add("Forms.TextBox.1")
    With txtB1
   .Name = "chkDemo" & i
   .Text = Sheets("database").Cells(r, c)
   .Height = 18
   .Width = 50
   .Left = l
   .Top = t
End With
c = c + 4
t = t + 20
Next i
Set txtB1 = Controls.Add("Forms.TextBox.1")
    With txtB1
   .Name = "chkDemo" & i
   .Text = Sheets("Summary").Range("D2")
   .Height = 18
   .Width = 50
   .Left = l
   .Top = t + 30
End With
Set txtB1 = Controls.Add("Forms.TextBox.1")
    With txtB1
   .Name = "chkDemo" & i
   .Text = Sheets("Summary").Range("B2")
   .Height = 18
   .Width = 50
   .Left = l
   .Top = t + 50
End With
Set txtB1 = Controls.Add("Forms.TextBox.1")
    With txtB1
   .Name = "chkDemo" & i
   .Text = Sheets("Summary").Range("F2")
   .Height = 18
   .Width = 50
   .Left = l
   .Top = t + 70
End With
Set txtB1 = Controls.Add("Forms.TextBox.1")
    With txtB1
   .Name = "chkDemo" & i
   .Text = Format(Sheets("Summary").Range("I2"), "Percent")
   .Height = 18
   .Width = 50
   .Left = l
   .Top = t + 90
End With
tbYTDa.Value = Worksheets("Summary").Range("H2")
tbYTDl.Value = Worksheets("Summary").Range("G2")
tbYTDpercent.Value = Format(Worksheets("Summary").Range("M2"), "Percent")
End If
This routine is repeated for the months of May, June, July, and so on.

Is there a code that will remove/delete all of the textbox controls previously created in one go?

Excel Facts

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
Try...

Code:
    Dim Ctrl As Control
    For Each Ctrl In Me.Controls
        If TypeName(Ctrl) = "TextBox" Then
            Me.Controls.Remove Ctrl.Name
            'Ctrl.Visible = False
        End If
    Next Ctrl

Another option might be to hide them by setting the Visible property to False.

Hope this helps!
