I have a little boo-boo I need to fix. I have a customer that has about 100 workbooks. I needed to add some functions to them so I made up a new sheet of forms and buttons as well as a series of new macros to bring into these workbooks. I knew I couldn't import the macros, so I added the module containing those by hand to all workbooks. I then imported a master copy of the new sheet from a master file i use to hold my working macros. The problem is the buttons on the new sheeets in each workbook now references the master workbook for the macro name, even though each workbook has the same macro of the same name in itself.
My question is, can I make a macro that will edit all the buttons on a specific named sheet (maintenance is the sheet name) in a workbook and take out the external reference.
For example, instead of the assigned macro pointing to c:master.xls!macro1 i just want it to call macro1. And yes, I can go into them and do it by hand. Do I want to manually edit 100 workbooks for a dozen buttons each? No. I want to automate it if I can. If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it. It would save me a bunch of time.

I have created a toolbar with buttons that run macros. When the macro is assigned to that button the macro will run fine. However, when the file name of the excel workbook has changed (file relocated or name changed) then the macro (button in the toolbar) does not work and has to re-assigned in the toolbar. Is there anyway of getting around the problem of having to reassign the macro to the toolbar button whenever the file name/directory changes.

Whenever I save and close the attached, after selecting the NO on line 23, I lose all the buttons associated with my macros. If I save with everything expanded, no rows hidden, my buttons stay put.

I have a setup at the moment where I have a spreadsheet using a bunch of macros that are coded in a module attached to another spreadsheet. In both spreadsheets the macros are tied to Excel buttons placed within worksheets. When I copy the spreadsheets each month to new directories - they're used for some monthly reporting - I see the following behavior:
1/ The spreadsheet that contains the module with the code for the macros correctly updates the location of the macros and works OK.
2/ If I open the other spreadsheet and save it the macros appear in the tools/macro dialog as having changed location OK. However, if I try to use the macros by pressing a button the macros invoked are in the old location. If I check the assignment of the macros in this spreadsheet by right-clicking on a button, indeed the macros invoked are in the old location. This means that I have to go through and manually update for each button the macro invoked.

I conducted a survey and want to tabulate the results in excel. There is a lot of paper, so I want to list each answer on the spreadsheet and have a button next to it to tabulate the responses instead of doing it by hand. When I look at each survey, I want to click the button for the corresponding answer. I want to have excel tally/increment each response each type I click the button.
So what macro do I need to assign to each button in order to do this? Or can I just click on a cell and have it increment? Or what can I do to achieve this?
My attempts have given my circular reference errors, or if I do the iteration thing (tools, options, iterations), excel increments EVERYTHING in the spreadsheet by one instead of just one specific question.

So I'm trying my hand at creating VBA buttons and functions that do the following.
Button 1 :
to add a column with every click. The button will create one extra column. So by design there will be at least 1 column. Example if the button is clicked twice it will create 3 columns. I just need a buffer col. (contains no data)
Button 2 :
to delete empty columns leaving only one empty buffer column. That is this button will purge empty columns except the buffer column. OR if ALL the columns are filled, Button2 will create the buffer column.
Eg. I click Button 1 three times. It creates four columns. I only fill two columns. When Button 2 is clicked it will delete all the empty colums except the buffer column. OR I fill in all four columns, there is no buffer column, when I click Button2 it will insert the buffer col.
Button 3 :
to add a row with every click. The button will create one extra row. So by design there will be at least 1 row. Example if the button is clicked twice it will create 3 rows. I just need a buffer row. (contains no data)
Button 4 :
to delete empty row leaving only one empty buffer row. That is this button will purge empty row except the buffer row. OR if ALL the columns are filled, Button4 will create the buffer column.
Eg. I click Button 3 three times. It creates four rows. I only fill two rows. When Button 4 is clicked it will delete all the empty rows except the buffer rows. OR I fill in all four rows, there is no buffer rows, when I click Button4 it will insert the buffer row.
In the sample file there are six columns filled with data. The 7th col is empty(the buffer column). The column after that calculates the average of data in filled columns. There are eight rows with data and the ninth row is the empty buffer row.
The "add" buttons must be able copy the format/formula of the column/rows BEFORE the buffer colums/rows and insert it before the buffer column/row.

I'd like to insert some radio buttons in a worksheet that activate a hyperlink to a web page and then be able to go back to where I started (ie the radio button)
I can link the button to a macro which was a recording of clicking on a hyperlink. The trouble is when I hit the return arrow to return to the sheet from the web page I go back to the location of the hyperlink not where I started from.
Is there a way to do this with the buttons.
If I can rearrange the sheet to allow for more narrow columns I may be able to just use the hyperlink friendly name argument and do it that way but I'm not so sure I can insert more narrow columns without messing up the layout of the whole sheet. With a button I can float several of them over an area regardless of the width of the columns.

I am trying to create a worksheet that has multiple radio buttons. Each radio button is linked to a Macro. I need there to be many buttons running down one side of the worksheet. Each button needs to perform a macro that is relevant to the cells in the same row that it is on.
Essentially what i am trying to do is make a macro that when the button is pressed copys data from H6 and paste it into B6. The button is situated above I6. I need a button for each row from 6 to 110.
While this macro is easy to create (i use the record button and then assign the macro to the button), i would have to do this 104 times and assign a new macro to each button.
Is there a quicker way?

I noticed that my custom "Close without Saving" button stopped working. I checked the VBA editor and my Personal workbook was missing and all of my personal macros were gone. I restarted excel, same issue. Rebooted my machine and they re-appeared. Not sure how what happened, but at least the Personal workbook was not lost. I'm working off my company's network, so often I get the "Personal Workbook is locked for editing" message. I usually select the open as read-only file and go about my merry way. Perhaps I clicked something different on accident without paying attention.
Anyway, I digress, the custom macro button that I had in my ribbon still didn't work, so I removed it and tried again in both the ribbon and the quick access toolbar with no success. The Macro executes if I execute it manually or via the keyboard shortcut, but the ribbon/quick access toolbar buttons won't work. Frustrating, because I use this quite often. I've even tried writing a quick "dummy" macro to see if it was some sort of code error related to the macro, but got the same result. My "Close without saving" code is below (super basic code).
Sub Close_Without_Saving()'' Close_Without_Saving Macro' Closes active workbook without saving changes.'' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+q' ActiveWorkbook.Close (False)End Sub

I have built a template worksheet from which I have developed a macro to copy and rename a new worksheet for each month. When the macro executes, it duplicates the macro buttons on the sheet. That is it copies the original macro buttons over (good) then adds "new" buttons in the same locations. The original macro button have been labelled with their function (eg Copy and Paste).The new buttons continue to go up in sequential order e.g. Button 71, Button 72... How do I remove these additional "new" buttons without deleting all of the buttons on the sheet?

I have a website that I have been posting filtered worksheets of specific formats of items for interested viewers to view. The Looker can click on the Button and Open or Save a Copy of the Worksheet. I hide unused rows and columns to reduce size.
I filter my main worksheet to find the item type that I want to isolate - I copy the Result to another file - Run a Macro to Remove the information that I dont want to show. Hide Unused rows and Columns. Save as my File name and Upload to the Website.
BUT -- In my Excel Workbooks I have Macros - Some in the personal file. Some attached to Specific Files. When the Viewer clicks to see the file -- it offers the Macros ( Enable or Disable ). This Scares off many viewers and they Cancel.
When I delete the macros and save -- it deletes the Macros from MY computer as well.
How can I remove Macros from only the Sheet that I want to post for my website.
Here is the URL of one of the Current Buttons to a posted file if you care to view and see what I mean and am attempting to do.

I have developed a series of spreadhseets in which I use a macro to derive and insert the data from a SQL Server db. These spreadsheets may have one or more worksheets, some of which start as blank "canvases", others are preformatted with static data.
They are used for client reporting so are heavily formatted and include graphs; some manual preformatting, some coded, some graphs drawn completely by the code, some already in place - I just populate the data source. The VBA for the most complex one extends to around 5-6000 lines of code.
While this code does not add a huge amount to the footprint of the files, I feel that it is inappropriate for the spreadsheets to be distributed to the end clients with all this code included. The code is password "protected" but we all know how effective that can be although that is not really the point anyway - I simply feel it would be more professional if the code were not there at all.
There doesn't seem to be any options on a "Save As" method which enable the resulting sheets to be saved without the macros. I have tried recording a macro in which all I did was to delete the macros concerned - nothing was recorded. So a macro to remove macros seems to be out of the question.
These spreadsheets are held in a master folder on a server and are set as "read only". The users start the a sheet, run the macro (via a menu item which displays a selection form) and then save the resulting spreadsheet as another file in another location. I am wondering if there is some way I can cut into this process and develop my own "save" routine.

I'm just finishing up a project involving migrating an old Excel 4 macro to VBA. Unfortunately, now that my spiffy (and slow) VBA is finished, I can't find a way to delete the Excel 4 macro! I've tried going to Tools -> Macro -> Macros, and while the old macros are shown there, the delete button is greyed out!

I have been using Excel for some time now but just started working back with the Macros! Finally figured out that you had to turn on the Designer tab to get to some of the functionality of the macros. I haven’t been able to find ANYTHING ANYWHERE to tell me how to create buttons or Icons in the 07 Excel!

adding custom 16 x 16 buttons to toolbars, which weren't preset images or using the built in deisgner.
Was hoping there may be an add-in giving more variety of buttons or a way to import set images. Very frustrating as there are many microsoft 16x16 bmps / icons that would be ideal but the choice is extremely limited.

Is it possible to link 3 buttons to one macro.
What I'm trying to do is have 3 buttons:
Load Button:
-Which makes a copy of the current sheet, renames it, and freezes its values
Print Button:
prints all the sheets
Clear button:
deletes all of the named sheets
I'm sure this can be done with an if then else statement, but I'm just not sure how to set it up to capture input.

I can't write macros, so have to create them by actually recording the process. I did that just now and then copied it into the Command button. When I run it from Tools>Macros, it works, but when I run it using the Command button it fails.
I'm trying to copy and paste values current MTD figures (P18:P39) to previous MTD area (W18:W39), but the command button fails at this selection. Cells 28-35 are blank, but I don't think this makes any difference, as I've tried the command button with those cells zeroed out.
This is what I recorded initially; this works from Tools>Macros
Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
' Macro recorded 04/01/2008 by Lucertola
'
'
Sheets("Reconciliation").Select
Range("P18:P39").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("W18").Select.....................

I want to put navigation buttons on each of the twelve spreadsheets, in one workbook, to run one macro. Is it possible to do this or do I need to follow the route of creating a separate macro for each (forms) button?
The route I have begun is to create this simple navigation macro is as follows.
Sub Goto200and100()
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 2").Select
Range("Q1400").Select
End Sub
Sub Goto100and50()
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 91").Select
Range("Q1400").Select
End Sub

Is there a way to add a reference to a button, which could show the user what the button does before he clicks on it. I'm thinking something similar to moving the mouse to a program in the Windows taskbar.

Is it possible to change the color of buttons or command buttons? There does not seem to be any place that allows this under properties for buttons, although there does for command bars. However, I've tried recording a macro as I change the color, but nothing get's recorded so I'm not sure what the syntax would be.
I have a spreadsheet with several buttons and I'd like them to change colors as they are pressed so it's possible to see what you've already done. And then, as soon as any other cell on the sheet is changed, the buttons reset color.

I need to have my macro select all buttons in the current row (including the button I clicked on and delete them. There are many rows with buttons. Each row needs to have this button. So I need it to be row specific.
I know that this is how to select the row that the button is in:
VB : sh1.Buttons(Application.Caller).TopLeftCell.Row
But I do not know how to select the buttons in that row. It needs to be included in this:
VB:
Sub move()
Dim shname As String, sh1 As Worksheet, lc As Long, rw As Long
Set sh1 = ActiveSheet
lc = sh1.Cells.Find("*", , , , 2, 2).Column
rw = sh1.Buttons(Application.Caller).TopLeftCell.Row
[Code] .....
After many attempts and alot of research, I have some more code for this problem: This deletes all buttons in the sheet:
VB:
Sub DeleteShapes()
Dim shp As Shape
Dim myVar As Shapes
ActiveSheet.Activate
[Code] .....
And this deletes the current button only:
VB:
Sub pressbuttons()
With ActiveSheet.Buttons(Application.Caller)
.Delete
End With
End Sub
Any way to either limit the first code to just a particular row, or expand the second one to the entire row.

I'm using the With ActiveSheet.MailEnvelope command in vb to send an email and it works fine, but the range I am selecting includes macro buttons on the sheet.
It is possible to prevent macro buttons from been printed by selecting Format Control > Properties on the button and unticking Print Object (off by default anyway).
Is there any equivalent way of preventing macro buttons from appearing in emails when a range is emailed rather than printed.

I have a couple of combo boxes with lists to generate data for a dynamic chart. Elsewhere on the page I have hyperlinks to other tabs in the form of round button shapes.
When you select from the combo box, the selected text shows in the box highlighted, which is fine, but whilst highlighted, no hyperlinks work. You have to click a random cell on the sheet, and then click the hyperlinks again. Something thats fine for me, but not for my users as there's a lot of them and they won't realise. they will just report it broken.
