Default Command Button - Shrinking Font

I have a new 200" landscape monitor that replaced my traditional 17". The
resolution automaticallyl resized on connection and looks fine.

However, when I click a command button, the font size shrinks. It stays at
that level until I click a different button and then return to the original
button, when it shrinks again. It will eventually become invisible to the
naked eye.

Internet research seems to indicate this is a bug. A standard Excel button
accessed from ViewToolbarsForms (not a VBA command button accessed from
Control Toolbox) seems to maintain its font size, but I don't know how to
link the Excel button to my VBA code. It only accepts standard macros.

I would love to stick with the command buttons but will switch to the Excel
buttons if that works. Please advise of a solution.

Thanks!

Chris

Man, I beat you guys again!

I just changed the word "Private" to "Public" at the beginning of the VBA
code and now the code section appears as an option to link the Excel command
button to.

OTOH, you completely lose the functionality of clicking on the command button
in edit mode and going to the VBA code. That's a huge bummer. So I would
still like a solution that involves retaining my current command buttons.

And it's a 20" monitor, not 200 as I posted in the first post.

Sorry for multiple posts, but I don't a mechanism to edit a post.
