hi,
if you put the code in the vb editor as a general module
then the button has to call the macro
Right click the button in design mode, click view code.
if nothing is there, add this: call yourmacroname
If there is code there, it should be running if it has the
click event.

Okay. Pretend I'm a totally idiot and and can't seem to

get anything to work
right! :)

Now, I have done a few macros before (basically just

recording them and then
assigning them to controls - but have not done this in

Excel before, so maybe
I'm missing something here). I don't know how to code at

all.

ALL I want to do is have a user click on one button and -

viola - the macro
does its thing.

The macro I have recorded prints several sheets in a

workbook. It works. I
tried it out and it works.

Here's what I've done so far.
1 - recorded a macro to print pages.
2 - created a button on one sheet. Right-clicked on it

and selected View
Code.
3 - I inserted my macro in the VB editor by opening up

the macro and
copy/pasting it into the VB editor after:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click ( )
End Sub

Sub PrintQuote()

' PrintQuote Macro
' Macro recorded 1/12/2005 by XXX
'

'
Sheets("Title Page").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1,

Collate:=True
Sheets(Array("Thankyou", "AV

EQ", "QuoteSummary", "Terms", "Punch
List")).Select
Sheets("Thankyou").Activate
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1,

Collate:=True
End Sub

Can someone please tell me where I've screwed up? I

thought this would be
the easy part of this whole project I've been working

on! ;)
