Office 2007 Macros

[Mr BT]

Why is it that I cannot create a custom button in '07 like I did in '03?
I know I can take a macro I have created and give it a button like a smiley
face or something. But why can't I just have the name of the custom button
rather than the smiley face?

I hope that makes sense. And I hope someone has an answer.

Thanks for the help.

Mr BT

Because it is different. Things have changed, including how you add custom
buttons.

You can customise it, but it is not simple.

Ken Puls has done an instalment blog on it,

and Patrick Schmid has created an add-in
