Hello wonderful people,

I have this code here which was written for me by @Jaafar Tribak some time back.

At the time, I was on office 2016 so he wrote the code based on that version.

The code is a great one which works great and adjust all controls as well.

The only issue I am facing right now is that when I install office 2016 for the first time, it works good. But after I connect to Internet, the code fails to create the control boxes.

I have also tried it with other office versions and it fails to work.

If there is a way to handle this could someone please help me out?
 

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
It's failing perhaps because you're missing parts of the code.
