VBA generated command buttons
 

I am writing VBA to generate user input sheets, within
these I can create command buttons and change the caption
but how do I programatically make this button call a
macro when it is clicked?

Andy,

Can you create your command button(s) at design time but make Visible =
False until you need them to be shown, when you set Visible = True.
You can have many invisible controls on a form and only make the ones you
need visible when you want the user to be able use them.
If you've got many controls, you can also put them one on top of the other
to save space.
Only the topmost, visible one will be shown and accessible.
If you're not short of space, you could have the controls visible but set
Enabled = False.
That way, the user can still see them but cannot do anything with them
(they're greyed out).

If they are buttons from the control toolbox toolbar, just double click on one
and you'll be in the _click procedure. This code would be under the worksheet
that owns the button.

if they are from the Forms toolbar, then rightclick on it and choose assign
macro. these macros would be in a general module.
