hi,
from your post, i suspect your problem may be "I am fairly certain i have
created the right type of button."
there is only one icon button you can assign a macro to and that is the
smiley face button. you can assign macros to built in icons but they already
have built in micro soft macros assign to them. how did you create this
button? more detail please.

regards

I have created the right type of button, and the 'Assign Macro...' option is
avaliable on the drop down menu when I'm customizing the button. However,
once I select the 'Assign Macro...' option - nothing happens whatsoever.

The same lack of action happens when I use the 'Modify Selection' button in
the Customize dialog box.

My office has just udpate the Office suite to 2003.

Any help?
