Userform to appear on top?

How do I get a userform7 to appear on top of userform1 when userform1 is
opened.

I have the following code:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
UserForm1.Show
End Sub

Thanks Jim,
I was after for userform7 to appear automatically when userform1 was opened.
The idea is to show operating notes to the users when its opened.

Then show UserForm7 first followed by UserForm1 ...

Sub Something
UserForm7.Show
Unload UserForm7
UserForm1.Show
' your code
End Sub

Do you really need another UserForm to do that? What about using a TextBox
(with both the Locked and MultiLine properties set to True) on UserForm1
instead? You could then use Initialize event code similar to this for
UserForm1...

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
TextBox1.ZOrder
'....
'.... Your intialize code goes here
'....
TextBox1.Visible = True
End Sub

You can then dismiss the TextBox whenever you want elsewhere in your code
like this...

TextBox1.Visible = False

To make the TextBox stand out, you can set it BackColor property to, say, a
very pale yellow, its BorderStyle property to 1-fmBorderStyleSingle and its
BorderColor property to, say, a dark red.

I cant seem to make it work.
There may be another way.
In my userform1, the users will write their names in textbox1. I was after a
note to explain that the name are to be in upper case.
Any Suggestions?

Put a label on the form with the textbox with instructions--or better yet, just
make the string uppercase before you process it.

mycell.value = ucase(me.textbox1.value)

And let the users do whatever they want.
