I find that the picture toolbar opening automatically when I click on a picture useful (sometimes).
Is there anyway of automating other toolbars to open (such as 'chart') when I click on an object?
I've been looking at various add-ins in google - but can't find one to do that.
I created a custom toolbar in excel. by right clicking on the toolbar, creating new, adding a couple buttons and assigning them to a couple macros.
I'd like to send this to people, how do i do this.
Obviously, the toobars's would have to reference the macros, these i have in an add-in.
Is there anyway that i could attach the toolbar's to the add-in so i could just send the add-in.
I also created a menu, is there anyway that i can put this into the Add-in also?
Where does the toolbar i created and the menu that i created save down. If i open a new excel without opening personal.xls, the toolbars will still be there (open one excel, then open another and it tells me that my personal.xls is in use by jason harris, i hit cancel so it opens without my personal workbook)
Lastly, if I open excel, then go into VB, I can save my personal workbook. How do I save this as or save a copy?
I lost my command bar and tool bars (excel 97) all I have is the blue bar on top then the column letters. How do I restore them?
View 9 Replies View Relatedmy excel is no longer showing any tool bars and I can not get them back, is there any short cuts to bring back the menus? I can’t even do a right mouse click on the sells for some reason. The only tool bar that is showing is the formula bar.

Can I simply save some file (containing my XL toolbar settings) from some location and if I ever run into such a situation again, I can simply copy the saved file back into the same folder...
Thanks in advance for your help and BTW would the solution work the same way for different Excel versions or?? My O/S is XP and I use both Excel 2003 (once in a while I also use Excel 97 but that is installed on my other old pc).
I am looking for a macro to hide all toolbars i am using this at the moment
View 4 Replies View RelatedA IT Ordering system has been created using Excel, I am prompted to enable Macros, no problem there. The problem is that when I exit the worksheet using a formulas setup as an exit button, my Excel is displayed with my Toolbars missing. I have been unable right-click at the top and re-add these I am only presented with the option to minimise, close etc. 1. How can I replace my Toolbars? 2. Is there a formula fix so that I can use this worksheet without losing my toolbars?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI use excel 2003 and have maybe 60-70 macros linked to buttons on maybe 6 custom toolbars. The macros are saved on a personal.xls that is saved in the XLStart folder so it will auto start every time I run excel. My excel crashed and my toolbars are all empty nubs and my personal.xls is still in the same folder but does not auto start...did a detect and repair no help...I manually started personal.xls no help...I found a thread that suggested looking for *.xlb didn't find it...a shared file with the same toolbars can be seen by other computers but not mine...

View 2 Replies View RelatedThis code snippet works when executed from a worksheet (it puts Menu Bar back) but returns an error when used in the This Workbook module.
Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Enabled = True
CommandBars("ToolBar List").Enabled = True
CommandBars("Ply").Enabled = True
I have a procedure that stores the Commandbar names and visibility settings in an array on open. Another procedure hides all Commandbars on open and restores their original visibility settings on close. For some reason the "Standard" and " Formatting" toolbars don't return to visible on close.
My error log says "08/13/07 18:21:37 [QA.xls]MCommandBars.bRemoveMenus(), Error -2147467259: Method 'Visible' of object 'CommandBar' failed". I have tried manually testing the hide/unhide procedure with hard coded settings and checked the correct variables are being sent and all seems to be correct.
I am pretty confident that the procedure to store settings is correct but have included the code just in case, also just noticed the "Standard" and "Formatting" toolbars are the only two visible at programme start.
Public gsaMenus() As String
Public Function bMenuSettings() As Boolean
Const sSOURCE As String = "bMenuSettings()"
Dim bReturn As Boolean
Dim iCounter As Integer

I have a custom toolbar created in a workbook. I have coded my workbook so that the full screen is displayed, removing the title bars, status bars etc
Application.DisplayFullScreen = True
However, there is still another menu option I am not able to remove. It is the "Add or Remove Buttons" and when you click that the "Customize..." button also is enabled.
I looked up some code on microsoft and only found code in office97 that gave me errors in 2003:
Sub DisableCustomize()
Application.CommandBars("Tools").Controls("&Customize...").Delete
CommandBars("Toolbar List").Enabled = False
End Sub
The quote from the site says "To prevent others from changing the menus and toolbars in a custom application, remove or turn off the Customize option on the Tools menu and turn off the Toolbar List shortcut menu."
I get an error saying invalid procedure when I run that.
how to disable the button or prevent users from choosing it?
I find (what look like) two extra toolbars have appeared at the top (below the standard and formatting toolbars) and to the left of my worksheet.
They have lines, dots and little boxes with an x or - in them, depending if you click on them or not. The +/- box function seems to be to make columns appear and disappear.
How did I turn this function on and more importantly, how do I turn it off?
I created 3 custom toolbars. I want toolbar A to be visible only in Workbook A.xls, toolbar B to be visible only in Workbook B.xls and toolbar C to be visible only in Workbook C.xls. while Workbooks A,B, and C are open at the same time. I use Workbook A to automatically open Workbooks B and C.
Problem: Since I'm openning the Workbooks automatically it only keeps the Toolbar C visible on all Woksheets.
I included the following code in the This Workbook Object on each Workbook:
For Workbook A:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.CommandBars("A").Visible = True
Application.CommandBars("B").Visible = False
Application.CommandBars("C").Visible = False
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Application.CommandBars("A").Visible = False
Application.CommandBars("B").Visible = False
Application.CommandBars("C").Visible = False..............................
I have a macro that starts when the workbook is open that hides many of the headers and toolbars. It is great and works fine unless you are working on another workbook and need to see those headers and tool bars. Is there a way to display and hide those items per workbook and not for the entire application. here is my failed attempt:
Sub show_excel_headers()
Dim wb As Workbook
Set wb = ThisWorkbook
wb.Application. ScreenUpdating = False
'Display Headings in all worksheets
Dim wsSheet As Worksheet
Dim sSheetStart
Set sSheetStart = ActiveSheet
wb.Application.EnableEvents = False
For Each wsSheet In Worksheets
wsSheet.Activate
ActiveWindow.DisplayHeadings = True
I would like to hide the standard and formatting toolbars in excel when i enable workbook protection, however I have no idea how to get excel to realise when workbook protection has been enabled, and how to hide the toolbars in VBA also. Also i would like to know how to do the reverse (how to show tooldbars when workbook protection has been disabled)
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to use a function that removes all toolbars upon opening the workbook and reinstates the same upon closing, the work book i am currently using does the following as described in the code. however the function is limited in that only toolbars stated in the code will be removed, if for instance there was an adobe toolbar, that remains on the screen. or is there a better way of going about this?

In Windows 98 for example when you created a Customised Toolbar and attached macros to it a file was created with the user name followed by 8.
i.e. timbo8
You could copy this file and keep it was a backup in case you lost the toolbar/s. Which invariably happened whn someone else logged onto your pc. When the company transferred over to Windows 2000 this file was called something else I thing it ended in a .xla extension but I don't know what it was called or where it it located.
I have created a spreadsheet and wanted to originally see if I could save as a separate format (that makes it more like an application than an Excel spreadsheet). Having investigated, I found that full screen mode pretty much does what I want, however you can restore the menus by pressing ESC or selecting restore down. Is there a way of preventing users from exiting full screen mode, I could add a close application button for them to use instead.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI was working on an Excel 2003 workbook with 3 worksheets. The first sheet is the 'Menu' sheet on which I placed buttons to take me to the other two sheets and back. I wanted to hide the Excel menus, toolbars, scrollbars, etc. on the 'Menu' sheet so that no user can alter that 'Menu' sheet. The 'hiding' code was not meant to affect the other two sheets.
The code worked fine. However, when I closed the workbook and tried to open a NEW workbook so that I could do some other work, I realised that the new workbook and its accompanying sheets had the menus, toolbars, scroll bars, etc. hidden. I closed the workbook and tried opening a new workbook. It was the same experience.
I called up the file with the code, deleted all the codes attached to that file, and re-saved the file. It did not solve the problem. And when I tried many more new workbooks and got the same problem, I deleted my entire Office 2003 installation and re-installed Office 2003. It still did not solve the problem.
I am trying to figure out the calculation steps that Goal Seek is doing behind the scenes so I can create the formula rather than clicking on goal seek whenever I need to make a change. I need to maintain certain weeks of supply every week depending on the sales. Let's say i want to maintain 5 weeks of supply every week, I would like to insert a column for "Suggested To Order' column that would change if weeks of supply goes below 5. In this scenario I would do a Goal Seek, but I want to automate the calculation so I don't have to do this step every week.

I have a workbook that I use for my purchase orders which is pretty simple. Each row is a separate PO, with 10 columns (po#, description, cost, date, etc.).
Is there a way to automatically generate new workbooks that contain all of the info from each individual row? For example: if I have 100 rows on my spreadsheet, which means I've issued 100 POs, then I want to have 100 individual xls workbooks, with the filename for each workbook representing the PO #s (206904.xls, 206905.xls, etc.).
Dont know if this is possible. I have a spreadsheet where cell A1 contains a value which is not fixed and can change daily, the value can increase and decrease. At present at each month-end I manually record the position of cell A1 at month end in cells C1 through C12 repsenting the 12 months of the year.
Example:
A1 @ 31/01/07 = 50 therefore cell C1 = 50
A1 @ 28/02/07 = 45 therefore cell C2 = 45
and so on for 12 months
what I would like to do is automate this process to automatically capture the value at month end into cells "c" and once captured, the figure to remain absolute for that cell/month and to ignore changes in Cell A1 that may subsequently occur.
Could this be done by date formula?
I have a VBA Macro that starts with a user form that gives me two options. I always need the same option selected, so is there a way to automate this? I want it to select Option B and click "OK" automatically. I don't want to get rid of the user form completely in the background because it has some other functions that need to remain intact.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to set up 2 tables whereby if you change a field in 1 table it automatically cuts and pastes a row of info in to another table. Or possibly by clicking a macro hot button? E.g. An entry in 1 table is no longer 'live' so moves to the 'archived' table when a field is changed.
