You could store the row number in a Global variable (EditRow), then in the initialize event of the edit userform do:

txtDesignation.Value = cells(EditRow, 1).value
txtCompany.Value = cells(EditRow, 2).Value
etc.

This should load the preexisting data into the Userform. Then do something similar to your code above to save it to the worksheet.
