Mike Gle #2 / 5	Adding Icon to MS Project using VBA Hi Luke, I'm not aware of a way to add an external icon to a tool button, but you can easily create a button image using Project's customisation tools. If you View/Toolbars/Customize... and while the form is showing, right click on a tool button and select to edit the button image and use the Image editor. -- Hope this helps - please let us know how you get on:-) Mike Glen Project MVP Quote: > Can anyone tell me how to add an icon to a custom toolbar button in project > 98 and 2000?

Luke_Warmwate #3 / 5	Adding Icon to MS Project using VBA Mike, Thanks for the note. I know that products have been created that add themselves to MS Project with their own buttons and their own icon images. How this is done? I know how to do it manually, how do I do it via VBA?

Mike Gle #4 / 5	Adding Icon to MS Project using VBA Hi Luke, Try the microsoft.public.project.vba newsgroup as you are more likely to get a VBA answer there.

Guy Co #5 / 5	Adding Icon to MS Project using VBA This works under Project 2000, your mileage may vary.. Create the macro.. View->ToolBars->Customize Select Commands. Select the macro from the list on the right and drag it to a new or existing tool bar. Then while the tool bar dialog box is displayed. Right click on the button you've just placed into a tool bar or select Modify Selection, it looks like you're going to have to edit the icon in-place or perhaps you can copy the icon to the clipboard in you icon editing tool and then past the button face. I don't have a dedicated icon editor loaded at the moment and the clip board format probably varies with the tool.
