Default Use of Forms Command-button on Worksheet

Once unprotected, can you make the necessary changes?

Is the form Unprotected?

Gord, thanks,, Yes I'm sure I used the Forms method;
I think my right-clicker is broken (or is not responding) -
perhaps a software issue requiring a "fix" - possible?

You sure you used the Forms Toolbar and not the Control Toolbox?

If Control Toolbox, you need to go into "design mode" to edit the caption.

If button from the Forms Toolbar, a right-click should do the job.

I created several buttons - Now I wish to edit the

any of the buttons (thinking this is how one would
get into edit mode) NOTHING happens; Even if I
View, Toolbars, Forms,, still nothing.. Holding
down the Control key while right clicking... NOthing;

I must not be holding my mouth right.. Can someone
tell me the magic abra-cadabra - that I might be able
to gain access to edit the text (caption)?

I'd prefer not having to delete the buttons, but then again
this isn't a problem since I don't know how this is done.

My sheet or workbook is not protected.

TIA,
