Sam, there are a couple of easier ways to do it than picking on a particular
cell to activate the macro. If you just use a cell you have to then add code to some worksheet event such as _SelectionChange or _OnDoubleClick to detect and test which cell got selected/clicked in and then decide which macro to run based on that test. You can use buttons from the Forms icon toolbar (View | Toolbars | Forms) to do the same thing easier - you put the button on a sheet and put appropriate text in it to tell what it does. You can then right-click on it and [Assign macro] and choose an existing macro to be run when you click on it, or you can build a new macro associated with it that will be named something like Button01_Click(). You can even get more creative by using shapes and text boxes from the Drawing toolbar (again: View | Toolbars | Drawing) and you can pretty them up with color and with the TextBox you can do some fancier things with the text in them. You can then right-click and do the Assign Macro thing with them also. You can pretty much [Assign Macro] to anything you can put onto a sheet or form in Excel - even pictures!
