stop a shape from scrolling with the screen?

[merlin777]

I want to place one or more buttons made from drawing shapes at the top of the screen but keep them there when the screen scrolls sideways - is this possible?

I know I can freeze some columns but this would mean freezing more screen than is practical.

Right-Click on the button, and select "format properties" -- you will find what you want there...

that's what I thought but deselecting those radio buttons doesn't stop it scrolling with the columns...

Except maybe you freeze the columns and ensure they are to the left of the frozen columns

I've got half a screen's width of buttons can't really freeze half a screen...

Next choice is to put them on a userform.

Or on a custom floating toolbar.

i'm liking the sound of both of those...

1. how do you stop a user form from scrolling with the screen?

2. can you point me at a good tutorial for floating toolbars?

1. You don't have to. They sit still unless you move them.

2. No I don't have a link to a tutorial, but they are called CommandBars and the controls on them are CommandBarControls.
