First create a macro that that does the calculation. Do this by TOOLS > MACRO > RECORD NEW MACRO, give it a meaningful name. Then do the keystrokes that do the calculation you want - these are being recorded as you do it (so don't forget to smile, they constitute the macro.

Then get the FORMS toolbar up and select the button - the one that looks like a VB command button.

Draw the button on the spreadsheet, when you release the button a sub form pops up allowing you to assign the macro you want to the button.

Hopefully you stored the macro in this spreadsheet, it will then be there whenever you use it.
