SUMMARY

In early versions of Microsoft Excel version 2.20, the first letter in the third column of a command definition table always appears as the COMMAND key for the custom command. If the command definition table is defined as only two columns, the earlier versions still look for three columns of information and assign the first letter in the third column as the COMMAND key.

To have no COMMAND key appear, insert a blank column between the second column and third column in the command definition table. For example, insert another column between columns B and C in the following example to disable "T" as the COMMAND key:

      A     |        B        |   C
   Command  |  Macro1!Trial   |  Test
