CommandBarButton.Parameter Property

Note
The use of CommandBars in some Microsoft Office applications has been superseded by the new Ribbon user interface. For more information, search help for the keyword "Ribbon."

Syntax

expression.Parameter

expression A variable that represents a CommandBarButton object.

Return Value
String

Remarks
If the specified parameter is set for a built-in control, the application can modify its default behavior if it can parse and use the new value. If the parameter is set for custom controls, it can be used to send information to Visual Basic procedures, or it can be used to hold information about the control (similar to a second Tag property value).

Example
This example assigns a new parameter to a control and sets the focus to the new button.

Set myControl = CommandBars("Custom").Controls(4) With myControl .Copy, 1 .Parameter = "2" .SetFocus End With
