I have a userform where Excel has "lost" some of the controls. They aren't visible in the form editor and don't show up in the drop down list in the Properties Window so I can't select them, and I can't rename another control to the name of a missing control because I get an Ambiguous name error. The code still compiles, missing controls included, without any complaints about undefined variables, but I can't bring them into view in the running form, i.e. I can dimension them as visible at the top left of the form, and there's nothing there.
I found out how to create new controls with code: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/204330 but nothing on how to delete existing controls. Is this possible? Those missing control names were part of a numerical sequence for looping purposes and now there are gaps in the sequence.
