Hi John,

Here's an example

Sub AddFormsButton()
Dim cell As Range
Dim oBtn

With ActiveSheet
For Each cell In Range("B5:B10")
Set oBtn = .Buttons.Add(cell.Left, cell.Top, cell.Width,
cell.Height)
oBtn.Caption = "Button " & cell.Row
oBtn.OnAction = "Macro1"
Next cell
End With

End Sub

Is there an easy way to create a series of command buttons programatically
so
that they line up in a column of cells. Each button will need to be
renamed,
each cell (that gets a button) will need to be sized properly. I would
like
to know if there is an option that would do this... the only other way I
can
think of that might work is to figure out how to calculate the necessary
size
for each cell based on the top-left and bottom-right cords of the button.

I also will need to do the same kind of function for a picture-box and
assign a formula to this (using it as a view window to show a series of
cells
from another part of the workbook)

Both of these will also include a block copy with a range of cells and
their
formulae. (If there were a way to do the cell copy [which includes 1
picture
box & 1 button] and have it include the objects ... and be able to rename
the
objects and set the new formula or macro, this would accomplish the task)

Any tips on how to approach this?
