Sounds like you are using controls from the Control Toolbox Toolbar and
think you are using controls from the Forms Toolbar. Use the controls from
the Forms toolbar and you will be able to assign a macro. Controls from
the control toolbox Toolbar use events.
The articles will give some insight in to using Control Toolbox Toolbar
events: (they are for userforms, but using them on worksheets is similar).
