Yes.
Click the drop-down arrow at the right edge of the QAT and choose "More Commands". That'll take you to a probably familiar looking window where you can choose "Macros" in the "Choose commands from:" area. That'll give you a list of macros to choose from. The macro icon will be a flowchart kind of icon. Hovering over the icon will show the macro's name as a tip eventually.

Click on 'Customize QAT'More commandsselect 'Macros' from 'Choose commands
from' drop down will populate any available macros. Select the macro and click Add will add an icon in QAT. If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "Gary''s Student" wrote: Excel 2007 is it possible to put something on the Quick Access Toolbar that will allow me to run a macro with one click? -- Gary''s Student - gsnu2007xx |

I should have added that it's probably best to have the macro in your
Personal file, since that icon is going to become a somewhat permanent addition to the QAT. You have to go through the same Customize process, but explicitly choose to remove the icon to get rid of it.

Just to add, if the macro should only be available in a particular workbook,
when adding to the QAT (as others have described) in the top right dropdown select "For myBook.xlsm". The button will only appear when myBook is active. However, due to a bug introduced in SP2, when the file is closed & reopened the button will no longer appear. Ron de Bruin describes how to fix here - http://www.rondebruin.nl/qatbuttonbug.htm Regards, Peter T "JLatham" wrote in message ...

You're welcome.
Also, if you haven't seen it, you should check out Peter T's response to my second post in the thread. Has some good added information about managing that added button: http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...0-b54ebf267a9a "Gary''s Student" wrote: Thanks! -- Gary''s Student - gsnu200909 "JLatham" wrote: Yes.
