Button funtion maybe!!

Im wondering if the following is at all possible in excel?

I want to place a button on the worksheet that on enter (press) it would
duplicate and insert a selected cell range (with formulas) at a set location
below the selected cell range.?

Here is the Click event code for a button named CommandButton1...

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Selection.Copy Range("G3")
End Sub

Just change the "G3" to the top left cell reference where you want the copy
to be placed at.

Where did you put the code at? Where did you get the button from (the Forms
or the Visual Basic toolbar)?

I used the VB toolbar (command button) and then selected the 'view code'
button in the VB tool bar? Then there is where I placed the code?

One other Question, the range I want to copy is A1:AA15 (alot of hidden
cells) and then pase it at A17 and so on?

I took your statement "and insert a selected cell range" from your original
posting to mean a range of cells you selected (highlighted)... obviously,
you are not going to be doing that with the range you just told me about. I
am just about to go to sleep for the night... let me look at this in the
morning when I am fresh and see if I can account for what you have now told
me you want to do (unless someone beats me to it and provides you with an
answer while I am asleep).

Okay, using View Code should have taken you to the right place. Instead of
the code I posted yesterday (which was based on a misunderstanding of what
you were asking), use this code instead... copy/paste it into the window
that comes up when you click View Code:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Range("A1:AA15").Copy Range("A17")
End Sub

After you turn off Design Mode (on the Visual Basic toolbar), pressing the
button should evoke the above Click event code for the button which, in
turn, should copy A1:AA15 to A17:A31(values and formatting, although none of
the rows or columns in the copy will be hidden).
