Alter ribbon button label on the fly?

[XP]

I have a custom ribbon with a date button, a Fund dropdown, and an import
button.

When the user clicks the "Date" button, I have an input box open in which
the user enters a date (the date is validated using VBA under the covers). I
would like the date entered by the user to then appear in the label of the
"Date" button. So when a date has been selected, the "Date" button will
appear as: Date: 04-28-2008

Can this be done? If so, could someone please post generic example code that
does it?

FYI, the next step will be to capture the date stored in the label (right
10) and run an import based on that date and the selected Fund selected in
the dropdown.

Thanks much in advance.

If you are referring to Excel 2007, it can't be done yet. Whether it will in
future is debatable, but not now.

Hi Jim,

You should use Outlook Express or another real newsreader. The attachment is
right there. Web interfaces block it I gather.
