Default button macro

This is good information. Thanks! I'm sure I will have many more questions.

In the e-mail code. How do I know which parts of the code to copy to the
VBA module to get it to work?

There are two option for buttons

Forms tool bar
Control tool box

Right click on a toolbar and check the toolbar you want

You can draw a button from the toolbar on your sheet.

When it is a forms button you can right click on it and assign a macro to it that is in a standard module of the workbook
When it is a control toolbox button go in Edit mode first(first button on this toolbar)
Then double click on the button and the VBA edito will open with this

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

End Sub

You can add your code between the two lines and close the edit mode.
The advantage of this button is that if you copy the sheet to a new workbook you also copy the code
in the sheet module to the new workbook. Your button will work in the new workbook.

If you use a forms button your code will not work in the new workbook because it point to the old file

I only want to send one worksheet, but I would like to send it to the
superintendent for approval using his e-mail address, and then send it to me
for processing. Is this possible?

Can you help me to understand how to assign macros to buttons, step by step.
I'm not a programmer and I have hyperlinks throughout the workbook. I would
prefer to use buttons as they look professional.

I want to create a "menu" page that will take you to separate worksheets in a
workbook.

I can't seem to link the macros to the buttons....

I also want to send a worksheet to an e-mail recipient for approval, and
then forward it to another recipient, once approved.

I need the code for both the menu and the e-mail and instructions on how to
place the macro on the button.
