    New heatsink

    Finally got my Arctic Freezer 7 Pro cooler. CPU temperature now never exceeds 45-50 degrees, so if you've got a socket 775 processor and are looking for a new cooler than I'd look no further than this one (the stock intel one was running at 80-85 degrees under load!).

    Array of user forms in excel ?

    Is it possible to create an array of user forms in excel vba, like you can do in Viusal Basic? I have a spreadsheet which contains 175 questions, these are to be split onto approx 20 user forms. I'm fine with creating 20 forms up front, but if the end user chooses to add, say, another 10...

    Thanks anyway Dan. The source workbook is maintained by our IT dept, therefore any small change like removing the "[" is likely to be considered a major change by them! I found when I was trying different things out that I couldn't enter a "[" in the sheet name without a...
