userform .name property

[RAYLWARD102]

IF I add a user form, I can change default form name from UserForm1 to whatever I'd like; lets say I rename it to u1
Lets say I create a userform click event that states: MsgBox Me.Name
That will work and msgbox will return 'u1'
My problem is with a function that I created, where I have declared: Private Function Do_something(byval someform as msforms.userform)
I can address almost all properties for someform userform object with exception .name? Why is that? I would like to know which userform I'm dealing with when it runs through my function but am unable to get the .name property from someform object.

You could use something like

Function Fluff(Uf As MSForms.UserForm)
   Fluff = Uf.Controls(1).Parent.Name
End Function
Sub chk()
   MsgBox Fluff(userform1)
End Sub

Or declare it as an object:

Private Function Do_something(ByVal someform As Object)

As an aside, you can check the userform object against its type, you shouldn't really be using the name as a string. As an example:

Sub test()

    Dim uf As uf1
    Set uf = New uf1
    
    Do_something uf
End Sub


Private Function Do_something(ByVal someform As UserForm)
    Msgbox TypeOf someform Is uf1
End Function
