Hi,

On recommendation from a textbook I was reading, I used Forms 1.0 toolbar
buttons to run macros, instead of using CommandButtons from the Controls
toolbar -- a decision I am now regretting. . . Anyway, I am using the
following code to temporarily disable buttons created from the Forms toolbar:

Sheet1.Shapes.Item(strButton).OLEFormat.Object.Ena bled = False

and this does disable the button from calling its OnAction macro. But the
button still appears the same, i.e. the text is not greyed out, and when you
move the mouse over the button, the pointer icon still turns into the "hand".
It is confusing to users, so I would like to make the button's appearance
reflect its current state.

Is there a way to modify the appearance or behavior for this type of button,
other than changing its Visible property to False?

Thank you kindly,
