Create macro button

[Sarah]

I am looking to create a macro button which when pressed will complete the
following macro. (This will be used by other employess...fyi)

Sub Summary_cells_from_Different_Workbooks_1()
Dim FileNameXls As Variant
Dim SummWks As Worksheet
Dim ColNum As Integer
Dim myCell As Range, Rng As Range
Dim RwNum As Long, FNum As Long, FinalSlash As Long
Dim ShName As String, PathStr As String
Dim SheetCheck As String, JustFileName As String
Dim JustFolder As String

ShName = "Info"
Set Rng = Range("A2:K2")

'Select the files with GetOpenFilename
FileNameXls = Application.GetOpenFilename(filefilter:="Excel Files,
*.xl*", _
MultiSelect:=True)

If IsArray(FileNameXls) = False Then
'do nothing
Else
With Application
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
.ScreenUpdating = False
End With

'Add a new workbook with one sheet for the Summary
Set SummWks = Workbooks.Add(1).Worksheets(1)

'The links to the first workbook will start in row 2
RwNum = 1

For FNum = LBound(FileNameXls) To UBound(FileNameXls)
ColNum = 1
RwNum = RwNum + 1
FinalSlash = InStrRev(FileNameXls(FNum), "\")
JustFileName = Mid(FileNameXls(FNum), FinalSlash + 1)
JustFolder = Left(FileNameXls(FNum), FinalSlash - 1)

'copy the workbook name in column A
SummWks.Cells(RwNum, 1).Value = JustFileName

'build the formula string
JustFileName = WorksheetFunction.Substitute(JustFileName, "'",
"''")
PathStr = "'" & JustFolder & "\[" & JustFileName & "]" & ShName
& "'!"

On Error Resume Next
SheetCheck = ExecuteExcel4Macro(PathStr & Range("A1").Address(,
, xlR1C1))
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
'If the sheet not exist in the workbook the row color will
be Yellow.
SummWks.Cells(RwNum, 1).Resize(1, Rng.Cells.Count + 1) _
.Interior.Color = vbYellow
Else
For Each myCell In Rng.Cells
ColNum = ColNum + 1
SummWks.Cells(RwNum, ColNum).Formula = _
"=" & PathStr & myCell.Address
Next myCell
End If
On Error GoTo 0
Next FNum

' Use AutoFit to set the column width in the new workbook
SummWks.UsedRange.Columns.AutoFit

MsgBox "The Summary is ready, save the file if you want to keep it"

With Application
.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
.ScreenUpdating = True
End With
End If
End Sub

one of the easiest, & most visually interesting (i think) ways is to
insert an autoshape into the spreadsheet. format it any color you
want, add text saying like "Click me to run summary", and then (most
important) format it & in the properties tab uncheck the "print"
box...... this way it's there, visible to your users, but doesn't
print.
then right click the shape & choose "assign macro" & choose this one.
now everytime they click it, your macro will run.
you can use a Forms or ControlToolbox command button, but they are
kind of dull & boring-looking. ha ha

hth!
