Centering a form on the document window

[christophercbrewster via OfficeKB.com]

I'm using a form that relates to the active document, and I'd like it to be
centered on that document's window. Most of the people who will be using my
macros use multiple screens, and the box often appears very far from the
document window, typically on another screen. So I'd like to grab the info
about the document window's position and size, and center the form in that
area. Is this feasible? (Another approach; identify which screen it's on,
and stay on that screen, but I don't know where to get this info.)

While the information in the article "Making a UserForm show above a newly

was created for another purpose, you may be able to make use of it for your
purpose.

Thanks for the response. I may have to postpone this improvement, but I'll
mention one more thing: the document on which I need to center the form isn't
newly created, but there is a newly created document too. So I'll need to be
able to identify the document. I'd be interested in any tips about adapting
these instructions to work for another doc.
