How do I add a commandbutton in Excel 2003 and modify its
characteristics? I have pasted a commandbutton from the control group
and modified its caption. I am not able to change its font name, size
or make it bold.
Also, how do I attach macro code to it to cause it to execute. I am
trying to translate a task given to Excel 2007 users.
Thank you.

Go in design mode and then right-click the commandbutton to go to the
Properties.

I am unable to locate design mode in Excel 2003...

It's the rules pictogram on the Visual Basic Toolbar.

Sounds like you created a button using the Forms Toolbar

Yes, my problem was using the wrong toolbar to add the commandbutton.
I never noticed the Visual Basic toolbar. Using that one, I was able
to change the font on the commandbutton and attach a macro. The
commandbutton works the work it is suppose to. Many thanks to all for
the total contribution! Don
