xl97???

If yes, rightclick on the button (while in design mode) and show the properties.

Scrolldown to the .takefocusonclick property and change it to false.

(It is a bug in xl97, but fixed in xl2k.)

I have macro problem where I am changing the background color on a worksheet
that contains charts. If any chart or part of a chart is selected, the macro
won't run from a button. My macro first selects a worksheet and a range in
the worksheet, thus de-selecting any other selection (chart). It then
changes the color in a specified range. The macro code associated with
button only calls another macro routine and has no real executable associated
with it other than that. The macro runs from the macro editor perfectly,
either by running the click macro associated with the button or the macro
routine called by the button. It runs perfectly from the tools macro macro
run pull down as well. It won't run from the button - it starts and then
just stops without completing the routine. Is it a bug?
