I have a macro that I created and I have copied the code from it to the code
area for a command button and when I execute the command button it does not
work but if I execute the macro it does. see the code for both below, I
receive the error Selected method of range class failed

Macro:

Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Range("A1:E1").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.Copy
ChDir "\\nysyrfsv04\shared\UGTREAS\P & C"
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"\\nysyrfsv04\shared\UGTREAS\P & C\Current Third Party.xls"
ActiveSheet.Paste
Application.CutCopyMode = False
ActiveWorkbook.Save
ActiveWorkbook.Close
Range("A2:E2").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("A2").Select
End Sub

Command:
Private Sub CommandButton3_Click()
Range("A2").Select
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"\\nysyrfsv04\shared\UGTREAS\P & C\Current Third Party.xls"
Range("A2:E2").Select ******Error here *******
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.Copy
ActiveWindow.Close
ActiveSheet.Paste
Range("A2").Select
ActiveWorkbook.Save
End Sub

That code should probably be in the worksheet code module that the button is
on.

right click on the button there is no option for assign a macro
