VBA Code to Select Pen/Draw or inkpicture

[Jason Barnes]

Have been playing with signature boxes, etc.
Would like to use the inkpicture feature but don't like the active x turned on. If you feel this is the better option and I can turn the active x message off with code when workbook opens, then feel free to share.

I'd at least like VBA code to select the Draw tab and pen tool when code is run.
Currently using Worksheet_SelectionChange on a specific range to zoom to a signature box to draw in. Code would go here.
Would immediately be able to draw signature without having to go to Draw tab and select pen tool.

Thanks,
Jason

I'm only short of a decade late but... Here was today's solution:

Application.SendKeys "%"                                'ALT menu'
Application.SendKeys "j"                                '1/2 for drawing menu'
Application.SendKeys "i"                                '2/2 for drawing menu'
Application.SendKeys "g"                                'Drawing tools'
Application.SendKeys "{LEFT}{LEFT}{LEFT}{LEFT}{LEFT}~"  'Ensure select tool is selected (to ensure the pen is always chosen)'
Application.SendKeys "{RIGHT}{RIGHT}{RIGHT}~"           'Go to the pen tool and select it'

I tried to combine these lines but I found them to be more accurate separately laid out.

Cheers!
