Thanks for the explainations guys, now I will try to figure out why they
worked on one machine and not the other! They are all stand alone macros.

I got a different lap top and when I moved my Personal.xls from one to the
other some of my macros were not on the list of macros when you go to
toolsmacros. Although when I look in the code they are there. I figured
out that the ones that were "Private Sub" macros were no working. I also
figured that when I changed them to just "Sub" they worked. I do know that
if "It aint broke don't fix it, cus to try is usually to fix it till it is
broke." But what is the difference between "Sub", "Private Sub", & "Public
Sub"?
