Custom button behaviour (activation and deactivation)
Hello all,
I would like to add a custom button to an Excel toolbar (Excel 2003) that could switch between activated and deactivated mode, that is to say, the same behaviour as Bold, Align Left, Align Center, etc. buttons, that remain pressed when the functionality is active. Do you know whether it is possible? Many thanks in advance David Torrejón Madrid, Spain |

David,
You need the State property With Application.CommandBars.ActionControl .State = Not .State End With -- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) "David Torrejón" wrote in message oups.com...

Custom button behaviour (activation and deactivation)
Thanks Bob,
I'm creating a simple example, changing the CommandBars.ActionControl.State property to msoButtonDown, but when the procedure finishes the button does not remain pressed. Is this the normal behaviour?

Custom button behaviour (activation and deactivation)
I'm analyzing using the Watch Window and when I assing the
msoButtonDown to the ...ActionControl.State property the value does not change, and the msoButtonUp value remains. However, if other properties like the Caption does change. Do you know if this property could be locked for some reason?
