Creating Custom (Button?) On Toolbar?

[PeteCresswell]

Got a macro.

- Is only available on that one sheet


What I would like to create is a little icon on one of the toolbars
that executes said macro - and is available for whatever sheet is
current.

I tried Googling a little, but I don't know the terms of art for these
things... so didn't find much.
