I have two workbooks that I have used ActiveX command buttons in. The worksheets work fine on the laptop but when its pluged into a projector all of the command buttons appear as the dreaded Red X placeholder or do not appear at all. If you click on the button placeholder the button does what it should, but still appears as a red x placeholder.

I am using Excel 2002. Have loaded the same file on an older laptop still running excel 2002 and all works fine when pluged into same projector.

This is driving me nuts - any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
