Button 4 is just a settings button that doesn't need focus, it basically Opens up a UserForm when clicked. I defined LostFocus for buttons and they work fine. They basically sort my columns for some names. Now, when i click button 1, it gets focus, Bolds out its font, sorts out my columns on name "GGG".

BUttons 2,3 work the same. But when i click button 4: 1 Last Button from looses focus, UnBolds its font. Expected 2 UserForm opens, i click OK button to close it. I want one of the 3 buttons to either maintain its bold text, or regain focus back on closing UserForm, dunno how to identify the last active CommandButton before clicking Commandbutton4.
