Assign macro to a clip art picture

[Annie1904]

Ihave created a macro in a word document which I would like users to activate
by clicking on aclip-art picture I have inserted. I know there is an option
of 'assign macro' in Excel, but can only see 'hyperlink' in Word, and I don't
know how to hyperlink to a macro. No instructions in Word help. Can anyone
tell me how?

You can use your picture as the "prompt" for a MacroButton field (which will
require a double-click). The purpose of a MacroButton field is to run the
designated macro.

Insert a MacroButton field as described in
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/UsingMacroButton.htm. Use the clip
art in place of the display text inside the field code -- that is, replace
the [Double-click here to run macro] part with the picture.

OK Thanks - got that working. But I have a further complication now! I have
created the document as a form. When I 'lock' the form, the macro does not
work! How do I put all of that in a form field?

Oh - don't reply - I was being daft! It's working now!
