I am having issues assigning a code to a command button that is added to a worksheet after it is created. No issues with creating the commnad button itself. Just cant get the code to work. All the new button will do is return the user to the "Main" page. Thanks

Dim Obj As Object
Dim Code As String
'create button
Set Obj = ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add(ClassType:="Forms.CommandButton.1", _
Link:=False, DisplayAsIcon:=False, Left:=200, Top:=100, Width:=100, Height:=35)
Obj.Name = "MainButton"
'buttonn text
ActiveSheet.OLEObjects(1).Object.Caption = "Return to Main page"
'macro text
Code = "Private Sub MainButton_Click()" & vbCrLf
Code = Code & "Call Main" & vbCrLf
Code = Code & "End Sub"
'add macro at the end of the sheet module
With ActiveWorkbook.VBProject.VBComponents(WS.Name).CodeModule
.insertlines .CountOfLines + 1, Code
End With

End sub



Sub Main()
Worksheets("Main").Select
End Sub

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
