Change the first line of your code to:
Public Function Security_Menu(A ctiveButton As String)
Then in the On Click property for Button1, use:
=Security_Menu( "Button1")
and so on for your other buttons.

You will need to pass this information to the procedure.
For example:
Private Sub Command3_Click( )
Call DoSomething("Co mmand3")
End Sub
Function DoSomething(str WhoCalled As String)
Debug.Print "Called by " & strWhoCalled
End Function
If you need to know which form it was a well, pass the button rather than
its name. You can then examine its Parent.

I am calling an event from the on click event of a command button. I
cant however figure out how to refrence "which" button was clicked in
the first procedure, in the second procedure... In simplistic terms I
would like the system to know which button was clicked on the parent
form so that it can pull specific requirements within the other
section of code... any help is greatly appreciated...- Hide quoted

Thanks.. I dont quite understand what your saying... here is the code
behind the module... I simply want to be able to call this function
instead of placing all of the code behind each button in each menu..
am I thinking right??
Public Sub Security_Menu()
