Sub WipeRight (Lt%, Tp%, frm As Form)
Dim s, Wx, Hx, i
s = 90 'number of steps to use in the wipe
Wx = frm.Width / s 'size of vertical steps
Hx = frm.Height / s 'size of horizontal steps
' top and left are static 
' while the width gradually shrinks
For i = 1 To s - 1
frm.Move Lt, Tp, frm.Width - Wx
Next
End Sub


Call the routine from a command button by using this code:
