Dimming Background

Sometime ago I saw code to dim everything in the background while user form is displayed.

It gives Excel same effect as is quite common now in HTML.

Could anyone help in pointing to this code?

    One possible approach is to place a semi-transparent Picture on the worksheet that covers all the cells of interest.

    At start, have the Picture be not Visible.  Then have your code first make the Picture Visible and then display the form.
