How can I tie a VBA macro to a button in Excel

Question

I have created a macro and a button but I can\'t see where to edit the button setting to invoke the macro. I\'m using Excel 2003.

Answer 1

If you've used a Form Control. The chance to assign a macro will come up right after you add the button to the sheet. Or, if the button is already on the sheet, you can right-click on it and select Assign Macro.

If you've used an ActiveXControl, right-click on the button and select View Code. This will open up the VBE with

Private Sub myCommandButtonName_Click() 

End Sub

From this sub call your macro like so...

Private Sub myCommandButtonName_Click() 

Call myMacro

End Sub
