Multi-line text on a CommandButton
 

Hi,

I am using Excel 2007. I have inserted an ActiveX Command Button on a
worksheet. I can enter descriptive text in the "Caption" field and this text
is displayed on this Command Button. I can only seem to enter one line of
text this way. Can anyone tell me if there is a way I can enter a second
line of text to be displayed on the Command Button?

Thanks in advance,
Paul Kraemer

What happens when you hold down the Shift key and hit Enter?

If you rightclick on the commandbutton (while in design mode), you can choose:

Commandbutton Object|Edit
And type the caption you want. Use ctrl-enter to force a newline in that
caption.

And if you wanted to do it in code:

Worksheets("Sheet1").CommandButton1.Caption = "hi" & vbLf & "there"
