formatting buttons

[tdebb8594]

Is there a way to add color to the grey buttons created with the forms toolbar?
I have several buttons on a sheet, each with it's own macro assigned and I would like to make them look different.

Hi,

If you have created a shortcut button for your macro in one of your toolbars, right click the button and select Edit Button Image. It's fairly straightforward from there.

Hope that helps

Hi tdebb8594,

With forms buttons, only the font colour may be changed.

If you wish to use differently coloured buttons, try using buttons from thr
Control Toolbox instead.

You could use an image for your button as well

Hi tdebb8594,

View | Toolbars | Control ToolBox

provides access to a number of activeX controls.

For more information on these controls, see ActiveX controls in Excel help.
