i have spreadsheet that contained several command buttons & it worked fine. then i ran across a bug in the sort instruction. i fixed the routine. when i went to add another command button. i got the above message, and the other command button were disabled.the macros referenced by the command buttons still work. then i went and checked some of my older spread sheets which command buttons and user forms. these have worked for years, but not now, all command buttons have been disabled. any ideas? thx...
