The error I got said " this oblect does not support this property or method"
I will do the best debugging I can and see what I can figure out.
I guess my main thought is, why has office changed so mush that older code
will no longer work? Shouldn't everything new be backwards compatible? I'll
let you know what I find out. Thanks for the response.

Looks like you need to debug your code and find where the disconnect is.

What error did you get - probably an object defined error?

Or a subscript out of range error (that is more obviously a naming problem).

put in some msgboxes, debug.print statements or watch expressions to see
what values your variables hold and see if they are legitimate.

I just upgraded to office 07 and have found an eror in some of my VB relating
to naming buttons on my sheet. Here is the actual code that used to work in
03...

Sub DoubleDoor(C As Integer, Col As Integer)
ActiveSheet.Shapes(Col - 5).Select
If Selection.Characters.Text = "Selected" Then
MsgBox ("Please click 'Clear All' before changing door layouts")
Else
ActiveSheet.Shapes(Col).Select
Selection.Characters.Text = "Selected"
etc. etc.

Basically, another sub called this sub sending C and Col. Col is an integer
gotten by this code...

Col = Application.Caller

I get an error everytime I run this code telling me that this object does
not support this property or method. I am trying to first of all, check to
see if a button (named 1 (Col would be 6, 6-5=1)) has the text "Selected" if
it does, I want to msgbox the user to click on another button. If it doesn't
have that text, I then want to run the "else" section which will re text the
button selectd to say "Selected".

Any ideas on this? I have enabled macros when I open the file and have also
trusted the location of this file.
