Copy Elements From One Page To Another in Multipage with VBA in Excel

Ehudz picture Ehudz · May 30, 2012 · Viewed 9.4k times · Source

I have a multipage in a userform. During run-time, the user can choose to add x number of pages at any time. The elements of each page will be the same. I am wondering if there is a way to duplicate these elements, or would I need to re-create these same elements for each new page? If so, how do I specify locations on the page where the element should be placed?

The trick is to put all controls in a frame in the 1st page and then the rest becomes easy :)

This code will copy the controls from Page1 to Page2 after creating Page2 and align them accordingly.

Option Explicit

Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
    Dim l As Double, r As Double
    Dim ctl As Control

    MultiPage1.Pages.Add

    MultiPage1.Pages(0).Controls.Copy
    MultiPage1.Pages(1).Paste

     For Each ctl In MultiPage1.Pages(0).Controls
        If TypeOf ctl Is MSForms.Frame Then
            l = ctl.Left
            r = ctl.Top
            Exit For
        End If
    Next

    For Each ctl In MultiPage1.Pages(1).Controls
        If TypeOf ctl Is MSForms.Frame Then
            ctl.Left = l
            ctl.Top = r
            Exit For
        End If
    Next
End Sub
