Hello,
I searched this forum for a solution to my problem but I am up against something I can't understand: when I want to insert a button in my sheet to later trigger a macro, I go to View / Toolbar / Form Controls ... and the button icon is not highlighted!?
I am attaching the file in question, just in case: https://www.cjoint.com/?3GekuwLQ289
and I thank you in advance for your valuable assistance.

Hello,
Use the "View" dropdown menu
> Toolbar > Form Control.
Then click on the "draft mode" button to activate the other buttons.
All you have to do next is select the one you are interested in.

And it works!
Thank you very much to everyone for looking into my problem and especially to Abel for providing the solution.

Good evening,
make sure you're not in "read-only" mode, because I took your file and I succeeded.
Then:
go to the toolbar display and check "form control"
select "button" the pointer will turn into a cross, you drag it into your document.
@ see you soon -
Hello,
I am not in read-only mode.
When I display "form control," the only icons available are: "Select" - "(De)activate draft mode" - "Form draft" - "Additional controls" - "(De)activating assistants."
The other icons are not highlighted!? -
Hello,
I just tested with another version of OpenOffice on Windows this time... and it works too. As long as you check "form control" and only use a Calc file. Sorry, otherwise, I don’t see...
Best regards
