SUMMARY
In the Word for Windows WordBasic macro language, command buttons carry out actions. Command button equivalents, when used in conjunction with dialog box equivalent macro statements, cause those actions to be carried out.

Command button equivalents can only be used with the keyword form of the statement. Only one command button equivalent can be specified per statement.
