If you want to see the caption instead of an icon you have to change the
button's style:

With Btn
.Style = msoButtonCaption

| Set Btn = Tb.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton)
| With Btn
| ' .FaceId =
| .OnAction = "Refresh_Metric"
| .Caption = "This will refresh existing workbook."
| End With

| Thanks.
