Why does Showing a UserForm as Modal Stop Code Execution?

Question

The following VBA code stops at Me.Show. From my tests, it seems that Me.Show stops all code execution, even if the code is inside the UserForm.

Answer 1

When the form is displayed with vbModal, the code will suspend execution and wait for user interaction with the form. For example clicking a button or using a dropdown.

If you update the form property

ShowModal = False

and remove vbModal from your code. This will allow code execution to continue when the form is displayed.
