how do you disable a button in excel?
i know how to disable buttons in userforms, but trying to use similar
coding like this:

ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 1").Enabled = True

does not seem to work. can a button made from the Forms toolbar be
disabled?

Hi Jest,

Get it from the Buttons collection

ActiveSheet.Buttons("Button 1").enabled = true
