Hi NG!

In Excel its very easy to assign a macro to an obejct (like a picture) in a
spreadsheet. How can I assign a macro to an obejct in a document.

Hi Jan,

In Word this is done by inserting a MACROBUTTON field. There are details on
this feld within the Help files in Word.

Put very simply, you cannot. Word does not have this facility.

What Word does have, though, it the MACROBUTTON field. Look that up in Word's
Help files to get a start on it.

Hi Jan,

It can be done quite easily.

From the Control Toolbox on the Visual Basic Toolbar in Word, you can use an
Image control or Command Button control in your document, then change the
Picture property to your choice. In the click event for either control you
can write your code.
