Default Programming Ideas

I have a 2 item wishlist of items that could be done with
programming. I use a construction estimate workbook that
can have several estimates for one project in the book and
some of the estimates can be pretty long (9 or 10 printed
pages).

1. Can I create a button that displays the value of a
cell (With a short description). It would be kind of like
the watch box but a lot easier to read and docked onto the
toolbar in the size of a drop-down button.

2. Can a background be added to a sheet so that I can
differentiate sheets when looking at it? All estimate
sheets tend to look the same when you have 6 of them and
it is 15 minutes before the bid. I'd like a sheet name or
something to show up kind of like a watermark in the
background. It would have to move with the scrolling or
be repeated as you go down the sheet.
