Start here

Ron,
Either the instructions are wrong or I have failed to follow them but I
could not get it to work.

Hi,

For the basic images:

1. Press Alt+1, and choose Customize
2. Choose Macros from the Choose command from drop down
3. Find your macro on the left side, and double-click it
4. Select the new button on the right side and click the Modify button at
the bottom right.

If this helps, please click the Yes button.

Cheers,
Shane Devenshire

Shane,
I have opened my Excel 2007 workbook and pressed Alt +1. Whats supposed to
happen? I don't see Customize. However I think I know where your going and
I've been there.
If this gives me one of the microsoft icons. I don't want one of thoses. I
want one of my own.

My guess would be the latter.

Ron's instructions are always correct in my estimation.

Hi,
I follwed steps 1, 2 and 3 ok. The line Use Browse to select the add-in and
then click OK got me beat. A new window opens titled Browse. The box next to
Look In has Addins in it but there is nothing listed in the area below.
Not sure what to do, sorry.

Browse to the folder where you have saved the add-in and select it and press OK
