Relabel custom toolbar buttons?

C

Curmudgeon

When a macro name is dragged to a toolbar, a button is created that
displays name of the macro. If the macro is stored in the local mpp,
the name gets way too long. Is there a way to relabel the button to
something shorter and easier to understand than "[project
filename].mpp![name of macro]"?

This is documented somewhere in "Help" and I'm sure I did not find this
by serendipity.

Menu: View/Toolbars/Customise ...

While that dialog box visible, click on the right mouse click o the
button and you'll see a rich list of options to enable changing lots of
things.

Thanks - found it on Experts Exchange:

- right click in the tool bar and select "Customize"
- right click again on the button with the dragged macro and click on
"Assign macro"
- the first line in the dialog ("Command") shows the full name of the
macro as you described, you can change the second line ("Name") to any
short name you like
