    I couldn't get the snippets of code to work so I changed stuff for testing

    I think that this layout is a little more reliable, and has the advantage that it seems to work


    In ThisWortkbook

    Option Explicit
    
    
    Private Sub Workbook_Open()
        buttonActiveColour = vbGreen        '   RGB(115, 135, 156)
        buttonInactiveColour = vbRed        '   RGB(225, 225, 225)
        
        tableChange
    End Sub

    In a Standard Module

    Option Explicit
    
    
    Public buttonActiveColour As Long
    Public buttonInactiveColour As Long
    Public currentTable As String
    
    
    Sub tableChange()   '   not Private
        
        With Worksheets("Sheet1")
            
            'for testing
            currentTable = .Range("K3").Value
       
            Select Case currentTable
                Case Is = "Bookings"
                    .cmdBooking.BackColor = buttonActiveColour
                Case Else
                    .cmdBooking.BackColor = buttonInactiveColour
            End Select
        End With
    
    
    End Sub

    In the Worksheet Module

    Option Explicit
    
    
    Private Sub cmdBooking_Click()
        tableChange
    End Sub
    
    
    Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
        tableChange
    End Sub
