Step 1: The AutoAssign.xlam file is a packaged form of the visualbasic script. We want to do the following: 1. Put the script in a safe place so that Excel will always be able to find it. 2. Tell Excel where it is located so that it can use it. 3. Link a button to it so that it can be called easily. So the first thing to do is to simply drag the AutoAssign.xlam file to an arbitrary directory. Just make sure that it's not a directory that will change location or be deleted and that you can remember where it is for later.
