I want to create a "menu" page that will take you to separate worksheets in a
workbook.

I can't seem to link the macros to the buttons....  

I also want to send a worksheet to an e-mail recipient for approval, and
then forward it to another recipient, once approved.

I need the code for both the menu and the e-mail and instructions on how to
place the macro on the button.

Hi dmshurley

For mail code see

Button: Do you want to send one worksheet of the workbook or the whole workbook ?

I only want to send one worksheet, but I would like to send it to the
superintendent for approval using his e-mail address, and then send it to me
for processing.  Is this possible?

Can you help me to understand how to assign macros to buttons, step by step.
I'm not a programmer and I have hyperlinks throughout the workbook.  I would
prefer to use buttons as they look professional.

There are two option for buttons

Forms tool bar
Control tool box

Right click on a toolbar and check the toolbar you want

You can draw a button from the toolbar on your sheet.

When it is a forms button you can right click on it and assign a macro to it that is in a standard module of the workbook
When it is a control toolbox button go in Edit mode first(first button on this toolbar)
Then double click on the button and the VBA edito will open with this

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

End Sub

You can add your code between the two lines and close the edit mode.
The advantage of this button is that if you copy the sheet to a new workbook you also copy the code
in the sheet module to the new workbook. Your button will work in the new workbook.

If you use a forms button your code will not work in the new workbook because it point to the old file

You can also assign a macro to any object you insert on a sheet, like a picture
of your mother-in-law or your favourite pub<g>

This is good information.  Thanks!  I'm sure I will have many more questions.

In the e-mail code.  How do I know which parts of the code to copy to the
VBA module to get it to work?

Download the example workbooks on my mail page and see a few examples working with a button.

How about a sheet navigation bar from Dave Peterson?

http://www.contextures.on.ca/xlToolbar01.html

Or Bob Phillips' Browsesheets macro?

See this google search result.  All one line for the URL
