I used the Tools/Macros/Record macro to do the actions you described and got pretty much the whole thing ... Public Sub Macro1() ' ' Macro1 Macro ' Macro recorded 5/28/2008 by Tom Lavedas ' ' ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Vacation" With ActiveCell.Interior .ColorIndex = 6 ' yellow .Pattern = xlSolid End With End Sub Then I activated the Control Toolbox (View/Toolbars), selected design mode and pasted in the button, right clicked on the button and selected View code and added the word Macro1 to the supplied code framework for CommandButton1 and modified the macro subroutine by making it Public ... Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Macro1 End Sub Turned off design mode and tested it on cell A1. Worked the first time. Elapsed time 3 minutes. The Record macro tool is your friend ;-) The macro code could also be moved to the CommandButton routine instead and the macro routine deleted.
