Create Toolbar Button
Andy 12/31/2008 8:41:01 AM
I want to create a couple of buttons to place on my toolbar. Some to open
commonly used files and one to load a template. Any links/pointers
appreciated.

Thanks

Found a much, much easier way. Just right-click toolbars>Customise>Macros.
Drag and drop a custom button then modify selection and assign a hyperlink.
Much easier for those of us that don't do VBA very well!!!

Thanks anyway though,
A

Just for info.

These customizations are saved in your Excelxx.xlb file.

Many such customizations will increase the size of the file.

This file has a tendency to become corrupt when it gets too large and will
give you problems.
