    Scroll Bar missing "Control" tab in "Format Properties" dialog box

    Good afternoon, all,

    I have a scroll bar on a worksheet that, which when I right click and click
    "Format Control" displays a dialog box with "Size", "Protection",
    "Properties", "Web" and "Control" tabs, the latter of which allows me to
    soecify maximum and minimum values and link the scrollbar to a cell to
    display a value between the min and max, depending on the position of the
    button within the scrollbar.

    However, when I create subsequent scrollbars, the "Control" tab is absent.
    Can anyone enlighten me as to what is going on?

    Thanks in advance

    Pete

    The scrollbar with Control is a Forms toolbar control and the others are
    Control Toolbox controls.

    There is a scrollbar on the Forms toolbar and a scrollbar on the control toolbox
    toolbar.

    The one that is missing the control tab is from the control toolbox toolbar.

    Delete that scrollbar and add one from the Forms toolbar and you'll be happy
    again.

    To add to Dave's comment,

    For the scroll bar from the Controls toolbar you can select the scroll bar and click properties which will give you the access to the control settings.
