I want to assign a macro (error message) to the SAVE icon on the Standard
Toolbar to disable that save function to get the user to use the save button I have set up on the Sheet. I know it can be done because I have it on a spreadsheet someone elsse set up but I cannot find where they set it up. THANKS for any help. |

Assign Macro to Icon on toolbar
In EXCEL 2007 take the following actions:- Office Button (top left hand corner). Excel Options Customize In:- Choose commands from: - select Macros Highlight the Macro you wish to attach to the Save button Add Your Macro should now be added to the bottom of the list on the right hand side. Click it to highlight it. Select:- Modify . . . - button towards lower right hand side. Choose the, €śSave€ť icon and hit OK. Your Macro now has that icon assigned to it. Click on OK. Your new button will now appear on the far right hand side of the Quick Access Tooolbar (which itself is found towards the top left hand corner of your EXCEL 2007 window). If my comments have helped please hit Yes. Thanks.

Assign Macro to Icon on toolbar
Thanks I can see how this would work but will it have the icon only for the
one specific spreadsheet or for all spreadsheets for that computer. I want it to be assigned with spreadsheet so that I do not have to do it on all computers. Also, on thinking about it is it easier to do if I just give an error message when they click the "save icon" rather than assigning it to run a macro?
