Hi,

Are you familiar with Events? A Click is an event for a control. So you have to decide what you want to happen when you click any specific control?

But a substitute Toolbox??? WHY?

Me being a non-english speaking native, I may not have explained exactly what I want...

Perhaps the word "substitute" is not the word I was looking for..
To the best of my knoleage there is no tollbox control in vba forms....

I'm creating a macro that will "look" and "feel" like a standart app, so the excel window ( app ) is invisible...
i could cluster a bunch of buttons and "simulate a toolbox/toolbar but is there a better way to acomplish this?

I also would like to set an image face to the buttons....

Oh, yes, I known what events are and how to work them...

But there is. You have the tools in the Worksheet Control Toolbox, and much more.

Don't understand your question.

As I saied, to the best of my knoleage....in vba user forms there is NO toolbox/toolbar CONTROL, not the container!
Maybe there is is the worksheet controls, but since the excel itself is going to be invisible, its useless for me....So I guess Ill just Cluster a few image buttons to simulate a toolbar...

Thanks anyway...

You have some options:
- use modeless userforms. The 'toolbar' form can be modified with api to have toolbar menu style,
- use vb toolbar (reference to ms common controls), can be customized to look like menu bar or toolbar,
- create popup menu.
