Hide close [X] button on excel vba userform for my progress bar

Question

I created a userform to show a progress bar when the macro is still importing sheets

Answer 1

You can work it out from the following snippets:

Select the cmdClose button On the Menu bar, choose View | Code Where the cursor is flashing, enter the following code:

Private Sub cmdClose_Click()
  Unload Me
End Sub

On the Menu bar, choose View | Object, to return to the UserForm.

To allow users to close the form by pressing the Esc key:

Select the cmdClose button In the Properties window, change the Cancel property to True

To prevent users from closing the form by clicking the X button

When the UserForm is opened, there is an X at the top right. In addition to using the Close Form button, people will be able to close the form by using the X. If you want to prevent that, follow these steps.

Right-click on an empty part of the UserForm Choose View | Code From the Procedure dropdown, at the top right, choose QueryClose

Where the cursor is flashing, paste the highlighted code from the following sample

Private Sub UserForm_QueryClose(Cancel As Integer, _
  CloseMode As Integer)
  If CloseMode = vbFormControlMenu Then
    Cancel = True
    MsgBox "Please use the Close Form button!"
  End If
End Sub

On the Menu bar, choose View | Object, to return to the UserForm. Now, if someone clicks the X in the UserForm, they'll see your message.
