Default Can't change macro assigned to drawing object

Hi All:

I'm writing an app under Excel 9 and Windows 98SE. I have several drawing
objects on the sheet, and a unique macro is assigned to each object. I also
have two workbooks open simultaneously. The problem is that I can't change
the macro assignments. For some reason Excel is trying to run a macro with
the "right" name but under the "wrong" workbook. I've tried right-clicking on
the drawing object and repeating the "assign" command but Excel leaves the
assignment unchanged. I've tried it with the sheets and workbooks protected
and un-protected, with the second workbook open and closed, with the target
macros in different code modules, etc. I've tried selecting the macro from
the list in the Assign Macro box, typing it myself (qualified and
un-qualified), recording a new one and replacing the code, etc. Nothing seems
to work. Anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong? Thanks...
