Hi Malcolm,
I get a "macro not found" message for the forms button but the other works ok...

You know you're really in trouble when the light at the end of the tunnel turns out to be the headlight of a train hurtling towards you
The major part of getting the right answer lies in asking the right question...
Made your code more readable, use VBA tags (this automatically inserts [vba] at the start of your code, and [/vba ] at the end of your code) | Help those helping you by marking your thread solved when it is.
I ran Malcolm's file without downloading it and both buttons worked for me but I ran into a situation on the board where I posted a workbook with a userform and a forms button to open it....
without downloading it the button did not work for the person on the board for some reason. Not only that but they said they ran the userform.show macro and the activex button on the form did not work either. All buttons worked correctly if they downloaded the excel file and ran it from their hard drive. Error:

No issue here again, guys. (Wife's PC too)
It's not an admin thing, or John would be having no errors either...

Both work for me as well. Do you think it makes a difference that your browser may need to have ActiveX control downloaded?
