Command buttons

Richard

I've created a workbook using Microsoft XP, Microsoft Excel 2003, with
Command Buttons. Which work fine on my PC. But they will not work in
Mac. Why? I've tried activating them but still will not work. Thanks
in advance! Is there a Mac newsgroup for Excel?

From what I understand, the controls from the Control Toolbox toolbar don't
exist in Apple-land.

Maybe you can replace the commandbuttons with plain old buttons from the Forms
toolbar????

Thanks Dave, I'll try that. Question? Is the code the same, microsoft
to apple?

The procedures will have to be moved from behind the worksheet to General
modules and probably renamed(??).

You may need to use Activesheet instead of the Me keyword.

If you're using xl2k or higher on the pc side, you may have used Split or Join
(I don't remember any more). These won't exist in the Mac version of excel VBA.

And of course, if you've included any windows API calls, those won't work.

I don't use a Mac, so these are things I've gleaned on the newsgroups -- so
you'll have to do some testing of your own.
