Default Macro won't run from CommandButton

When I go to Alt-F8 and select and run the UpdateQuotes macro it runs
fine.
I added CommandButton1 with the following simple code:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Call UpdateQuotes
End Sub

When I click the button I get an error message:

"TextToColumns method of Range Class failed."

and it hangs up on the rngB.TextToColumns Destination:=Range("B2"),
DataType:=xlDelimited.... line.

Why does it run from Alt-F8 but it doesn't run from the command
button?

Thanks for any help.

Nathan
