Brett points out that Excel has a rudimentary icon editor. Right click on a toolbar button and choose Customize to enter Customize Mode. Then right click on the button again and choose Edit Button Image…
You get a 16 x 16 grid in which you can create your own icon. Here’s one that I created for my dictionary add-in. It’s supposed to be a book with the world behind it.
If you use this method to create your own icons, take a look at how some of the built-in icons look in this editor. It will give you some ideas on how to create yours.
Hi Dick,
Andy Pope has a great Button Editor add-in.

Highly recommended!
Hey Dick,
No offense, but what is your icon supposed to look like?!? :)

Matt: None taken. It’s supposed to be a book (i.e. dictionary) with the world (i.e. world wide web) behind it.
OK, I see it now.. :)
How do you do this in XL 2007?
