Assign code to a button created dynamically

Here is an example. Please amend it to suit your needs 🙂

This example will create a command button and assign code to it so that when it is pressed, it will display “Hello World”.

Paste this code in the click event of a command button which will create a new command button dynamically and assign code to it.

Option Explicit

Dim cmdArray() As New Class1

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
    Dim ctl_Command As Control
    Dim i As Long

    i = 1

    Set ctl_Command = Me.Controls.Add("Forms.CommandButton.1", "CmdXYZ" & i, False)

    With ctl_Command
        .Left = 100
        .Top = 100
        .Width = 255
        .Caption = "Click Me " & CStr(i)
        .Visible = True
    End With

    ReDim Preserve cmdArray(1 To i)
    Set cmdArray(i).CmdEvents = ctl_Command

    Set ctl_Command = Nothing

End Sub

and paste this code in a class module

Option Explicit

Public WithEvents CmdEvents As MSForms.CommandButton

Private Sub CmdEvents_Click()

    MsgBox "Hello Word"

End Sub
