SUMMARY
In the versions of Microsoft Excel listed at the beginning of this article,
it is not possible to generate a static, or unmovable, custom dialog box.
MORE INFORMATION
By design of the custom dialog box system in Microsoft Excel versions
5.0 and 7.0, it is not possible to generate a static dialog box. Therefore,
you cannot prevent a user from moving a dialog box by dragging the box's
title bar.
Additionally, you can use the DialogFrame.Left and DialogFrame.Top
properties to change the position within a dialog sheet of a dialog frame.
However, changing these properties does not affect the on-screen position
of a custom dialog box when you show it by using the
DialogSheets("Dialog1").Show method.
