I want to press a button in a program, but I thinkMatdavies post will work. If you have a better way to click a button in a program, let me know.

The easiest way to perform a button click from inside another sub or funtion is to call the function.

If you want to run a command button named cmdClearForm from inside another function just call cmdClearForm_Click and the code will run.

Good luck.

you can also just set it's value property to true, as in;

cmdButton.Value = True

That will cause the click event to fire
