This video goes over adding a button to your sheet using Form Controls, and then changing the button's look and feel.
Next, we assign an existing macro for one of the button's event, so that it will run every time we click the button.
Most importantly, I discuss macro security settings and how to prevent using them in untrusted files.
Lastly, I answer a viewer's question about using a button to recalculate random numbers. There's a very small chance that you can get rich using it. 😁
Thanks for watching!
