    How do i make a macro "relative" to cell?

    I know I want to make the macro relative, but I can't find the relative button.

    I record my macro, hit the tool button and tell it to stop recording. Where
    do I find the relative button?

    Thanks Very Much!

    Art,

    The relative button should be on the Stop Recording toolbar, with the stop
    button. You might have to use View - Toolbars - Customize to reset the Stop
    Recording toolbar to its factory state.

    The Relative Reference button is on the Stop Recording toolbar, that
    should appear when you start recording a macro.

    If it doesn't appear, there are instructions in the Excel FAQs here, for
    getting it back:

    The relative button is at the right of the recording toolbar, right under the
    x close button. It is a toggle and is either absolute or relative. To
    describe the appearance, when the button is pushed in, or it may look as if
    it has a lighter blue background, that is the relative recording state. If
    the button looks flat, or the same color background as the rest of the tool
    bar, that is the absolute recording state.

    Hello Art,

    If you want the macro to be recorded in R1C1 reference style, click on the Excel Toolbar click: Tools | Options | Genearal | Settings | R1C1 Reference Style

    Sincerely,
    Leith Ross
