I've never seen that behavior.

But I have seen a problem that when the commandbutton is added to a worksheet
via code, then when I rightclick on the commandbutton, neither Properties nor
Show Code is showing (but an option to Show Picture toolbar is shown).

But I can get to the properties dialog via the button on the control toolbox
toolbar. Select the commandbutton first, then click that properties button on
the toolbar.

Maybe it'll help for you???

No - that does the same thing.

From the 'controls toolbox', I select a button, right-click, and select
'properties'. A dialog comes up, but it's blank. My understanding is
that this is because something is protected. However, ...

- AFAICT, the sheet is not locked. As in, menubar <tools - protection
just shows "protect sheet" - no "unprotect".

- Other editing of the button is allowed: I can re-size it, move it,
edit the name ('commandButton object'), etc.

I do use protection in this workbook. Other WB's, w/o protection, do
not have this problem.

Any thoughts would be appreciated. I'm kind of out of bullets.
