'(ex) r01c01, r01c02, r01c03...r09c10
'there are 7 random colours a tile can be, the random number is stored in a sheet

Private Sub updateDisplay() 'call this procedure whenver display wanted to update
Dim cntrl As Control
Dim rr, cc As Integer 'for rows and columns
Dim strPath(7) As String

strPath(0) = "C:\Users\Documents\connect3\images\Yellow.jpg"
strPath(1) = "C:\Users\Documents\connect3\images\Green.jpg"

      rr = Int(Mid(cntrl.Name, 2, 2)) 'returns 3 if r03c04
      cc = Int(Mid(cntrl.Name, 5, 2)) 'returns 4 if r03c04

What is the syntax to open a userform?

Put the code below in a separate module from that of the userform. A common choice for users is the proceduce of Workbook_Open() under module ThisWorkbook.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
    <user form name>.Show
End Sub

 

Do not use the load method, as this just loads the form but does not make it visible. Besides, Show option automatically loads it anyway.

Load <user form name>
