Default Button on a sheet always visible


Normally the command button I place on a sheet to start a micro rolls
out of the window as I scroll the sheet ( button also moves up as the
rows move up when I scroll the sheet ). Is there any way to lock a
button in a window so that it is always available no matter to what
rows the sheet is scrolled?

Hi

Use Freeze Panes to freeze row(s) where the button is placed.

You could always put the button in the first few rows, then freeze a pane
(WindowFreeze Panes) below that button.

Or you could add a button to a toolbar.

Thanks for your responses. But for design reasons I want to have m
buttons placed at the bottom of the displayed sheet. Cannot lock botto
rows to freeze pane. Yes button in menu bar is an option but it woul
then appear in all sheets of the workbook. I would prefer a comman
button on a sheet, at the bottom and it stays put where it is locate
and not move with scrolling.

You can program a menu to disappear when you select another sheet and
appear when you select the initial sheet.

You could add code to your workbook to show that button when that workbook
is activated or opened, hide it when deactivated or closed.

Dear Bob,

Can you clarify? I code my workbook ( you mean worksheet ) to show
button when it is activated - how does that help? Sorry, I am missing
the point. As I select the sheet, my code will display the button where
I want it but how do I lock it in that position? It will still move up
when I scroll the sheet. Are you suggesting that I should deactivate
the sheet and activate it again so that the button is re-displayed (
by, let us say, selecting other sheet and then coming back to this
sheet )? I still don't understand how this will help.
I appreciate your spending time on this.

Yes, in your case I mean sheet. Something like

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Application.CommandBars("Formatting").Controls("my Button").Enabled =
True
End Sub

Private Sub Worksheet_Deactivate()
Application.CommandBars("Formatting").Controls("my Button").Enabled =
False
End Sub
