ExcelBanter - activating a command button

You have at least a couple of choices.

This is the code I used under the Sheet2 module.
Option Explicit
Sub George_Click()
MsgBox "hi from George"
End Sub

Notice that the Private keyword is gone. That's so the "Call" can find the
procedure.

This is the code under the Sheet1 module:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Harry_Click()
Call Sheet2.George_Click
End Sub

=========
Another way:
Under Sheet2:
Option Explicit
Private Sub George_Click()
MsgBox "hi from George"
End Sub

Notice that the Private keyword is back.

And under Sheet1:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Harry_Click()
Application.Run "Sheet2.George_Click"
End Sub

(in both of these cases, that Sheet2 is the code name for the sheet--not the
name you see in excel on the sheet tab.)

=======
And one more way:
Under Sheet2:
Option Explicit
Private Sub George_Click()
MsgBox "hi from George"
End Sub

Under Sheet1:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Harry_Click()
Worksheets("Sheet2").OLEObjects("George").Object.V alue = True
End Sub
