One cause could be that the button face is too small for the font size
assigned. This can be corrected in the properties window for the button by
changing the font to a smaller size or enlarging the button face. You can
also use the properties window to verify that there is in fact a caption
entered for the buttons.

I have a spread sheet which has embeded buttons that are attached to VBA
code, using the fucntion "=EMBED("Forms.CommandButton.1","")". These buttons
still work, but are not displaying the text on the buttons. Is this to do
with any add-ins that need to be selected?
