ActiveX Buttons
2 TopicsActiveX buttons unresponsive or having to be clicked twice to run macro
Hello, community! I inherited two Excel files that come with a bunch of ActiveX buttons. In some cases the buttons don't do anything: I click them, it shows kind of a duplicate image of the button on the side when I press the button, but nothing happens. The macro associated runs well if I run it from the VB Editor. On the other file, the buttons do work but only when I click them for the second time. Any idea what may cause this to happen? Thank you in advance for any tip or guidance.52KViews0likes36CommentsAssigning Macros in MS Teams Excel Workbooks to Buttons
Good Afternoon everyone, I have a workbook with a VBA Macro assigned to an Activex Control button. When opening the workbook I got an error message saying that form controls were not compatible outside of the MS Excel Desktop app. To get around this problem, I removed the Activex form control and inserted a shape in to the workbook which had the macro assigned. when the workbook is open in Desktop, clicking on the shape prompts the macro to run, however when the same workbook is open in teams, clicking the shape just selects it and doesnt prompt the macro to run. My question is: Are Macros completely incompatible with excel files hosted on MS Teams? And if they are, how do I add in a button or visual aid that once clicked, executes the macro?
