By default that control will be selected on which you had right clicked and selected the “Properties”. From here you can select any of the Control for which you want to view the Property.
Step 4. For Example: In the above Picture you can see Property of the CommandButton1 is displayed.
On Top you can see there is a Property called “Name”. This is the Name of that Control. This should always be unique in the Excel Workbook as each and Every Control is uniquely identified by this name.
When you add a new Control is added to the Sheet, by default a unique name is given to that control like RadioButton1, RadioButton2 etc.
It is always a good habit to change the name of your Controls based on it’s functionality. So that when you have lot’s of controls then it’s easy to remember the control names while writing code.
