Default create command buttons using vba

Works great Doug.

Can a Loop be used to create numbers of command buttons.
I seach a column for various strings in a Row and create the
number buttons based on the count of strings

For example A1 = Procedure
A22 = Procudure

the count for creating the buttons would be two for the worksheet
for 'Procecure' in column A.

Thank you for your kindness in helping.

Jeff :-)

Jeff,

When I run this macro it puts 2 buttons from the Control Toolbox on the
active worksheet. It sounds like that's what you want. Does it not do that
for you?

Thank you Doug :-)

I need to create command buttons using VBA from the
'Control Box'. To be imbedded on a worksheet.
I won't be using Forms

Jeff,

Here's what I come up with by running the Macro Recorder and a little
tweaking:

Sub make_buttons()
Dim cbutton As OLEObject

Set cbutton =
ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add(ClassType:="Forms.Comma ndButton.1",
Link:=False _
, DisplayAsIcon:=False, Left:=173.25, Top:=75.75, Width:=49.5,
Height:=33.75)
Set cbutton =
ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add(ClassType:="Forms.Comma ndButton.1",
Link:=False _
, DisplayAsIcon:=False, Left:=258, Top:=78.75, Width:=50.25,
Height:=27.75)

End Sub

hth,

Doug

Please help. :-)

I need to create 'Command Buttons' to reside on a worksheet
using VBA. The number of command buttons created will vary.
The command button type is from the 'Control Tool box'

thank you
