Excel 2007 - Comman Button does not work

[Cobby1812]

Hi there,
I have a weird one. I have an excel sheet that has a button that sends stuff to Sun Systems. Now if I open it up on a laptop the button works fine - opening on a desktop and nothing happens, the button does not depress...no data sent...nothing. Both on Excel 2007. I just dont get it...

any ideas anyone.

Hi,

Are macros enabled on your desktop?

Hi there,
yes all macros enabled - settings look exactly the same - I have checked all obvious things. Just wont let you do anything at all - cant right click on it - nothing. Yet on Laptop works fine. I cant work it out - I even reinstalled Office.

Is your control an ActiveX object? Try a Forms control.

Check all the Security Center settings, there is far more to configure. You may open document in protected view or have activex controls disabled. See settings in

and other chapters from the list on the left of this page.
