help please with a non-working V6 palette

Wizards all, I hate to bother you folks but since Mathematica has 
only menus and no useful (to me at least) palettes, my life 
was vastly improved when some kind soul helped me get the 
following palette working in V5. (I slogged thru V3 and V4 
not knowing palettes existed, if they did.)

But alas the color change buttons do not work (amazingly, 
the 3rd button does work even though "EvaluateNotebook" is 
unknown to V6 according to its help files).

Could someone please offer a suggestion on how to make the 
first two buttons work in V6? I've spent many hours trying 
things with no improvement. Ultimately, I'd like to add more 
buttons here for other procedures which ruin my wrists 
working thru menus.

Thanks in advance,



Cell[BoxData[{
  ButtonBox["SetTextBlue",
   Active->True,
   BaseStyle->"Evaluate",
   ButtonFunction:>FrontEndExecute[{
      FrontEndToken[
       FrontEnd`InputNotebook[], "FontColor", 
"RGBColor[0,0,1]"]}],
   ButtonNote->"SetTextBlue ",
   Evaluator->Automatic], "\n",

  ButtonBox["SetTextRed",
   Active->True,
   BaseStyle->"Evaluate",
   ButtonFunction:>FrontEndExecute[{
      FrontEndToken[
       FrontEnd`InputNotebook[], "FontColor", 
"RGBColor[1,0,0]"]}],
   ButtonNote->"SetTextBlue ",
   Evaluator->Automatic], "\n",

  ButtonBox[
   RowBox[{"Notebook", " ", "evaluation"}],
   Active->True,
   BaseStyle->"Evaluate",
   ButtonFunction:>FrontEndTokenExecute["EvaluateNotebook"],
   ButtonNote->"Evaluation ",
   Evaluator->Automatic]}], "Input"]
