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.
