Is there any way to change the background color of a command button? I have
a couple of them on a multi-user workbook, and I want the buttons to be
color coded instead of both being drab gray. I'm using Excel 2003. Thanks.

hi
button color is a property. right click the button, choose properties>back
color.
and i agree with you. i always colored up my buttons so the user wouldn't
miss them. I usually chose some awful gawdy color. can't miss that!!!

There isn't an option to change the background color in Properties... only
the font color. I too wanted to use gaudy colors so users wouldn't miss
them, or click on them by mistake. Thanks.
