Forms Command Button - Removal
Several times I've created a command button (from the
Forms Toolbar) to run a given Macro. Later I realize I wish to delete the macro AND the Command button. NONE of my workbboks or worksheets are PROTECTED. When I right-click on the button hoping it will come Up in edit mode for me to delete - but nothing happens. Any suggestions (on how to delete an unwanted button)? |

Forms Command Button - Removal
Make sure the worksheet is unprotected.
And if by chance, you meant a commandbutton from the Control toolbox toolbar (not a button from the Forms toolbar), show that control toolbox toolbar and click on the design mode icon. Delete the commandbutton and click the design mode button once more. JMay wrote: Several times I've created a command button (from the Forms Toolbar) to run a given Macro.

To insure that a Worksheet is Not Protected -- Do you
Do so by going to the Menu, Tools, Protection ,, and if you See "Protect Sheet..." and "Protect Workbook..." -- then Neither are protected, RIGHT? Contra if you see "Unprotect Sheet..." and or "Unprotect Workbook..." Then THEY ARE PROTECTED.. RIGHT? TIA, Jim " wrote in message : Make sure the worksheet is unprotected.

I glance at the toolbar--when the worksheet is protected lots and lots of icons
are greyed out. But, yep, going through the menu system should work. Did you try the control toolbox stuff?

Have you tried

I had the same problem. Once I showed the control toolbox toolbar, I was
able to delete the command button. Thanks. "Dave Peterson" wrote: I glance at the toolbar--when the worksheet is protected lots and lots of icons are greyed out.
