Custom button, code placement
Hi
I have created a custom button which I have placed on the toolbar. The button converts the text in the selected cells to uppercase. I saved the macro code in Visual Basic Editor - 'This Workbook' for Book.xlt I have created in the XLstart folder on my PC (I want the button to be available in all new workbooks as well as any others I may open). Every time I create a new workbook, I get the 'This workbook contains macros' warning because of my button. Does anybody have a decent solution to this problem? - Either so that the macro warning is bypassed (I appreciate disabling safety features is not ideal), or so the macro code isn't specifically stored in a template but in the Excel program itself (as the other standard toolbar buttons must be). Thanks for any help -- --------- Gareth |

Store the macro in your Personal.xls file in the XLStart directory.

You can drop your security level to one that doesn't alert you to the
presence of macros. You can certify your code and accept your certificate as a trusted source You can move your code to an addin and load the addin. (remove your toolbar/code from the xlt.) -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "el_peacock" wrote in message ... Hi I have created a custom button which I have placed on the toolbar.
