    Problems copying form controls

    I have a problem with the ability to copy a form button that I created.

    When I right-click and select copy, it tries to refer to a different workbook.

    I get the following error. (refering to an old project).

    Hello dnwong,

    Welcome to the Forum!

    I don't see why you want to copy a Forms button. An ActiveX Control has properties, methods, and events. I see why you would want to copy an ActiveX control. A Forms control just allows you to set the macro you want call. There isn't a lot to it. Why not just create a new control in the workbook?
    Sincerely,
    Leith Ross
