I am working on a workbook that has a custom worksheet menu bar item created every time the file opens. If I try to edit the path of these macros and save the file, when i reopen the file, it is back to the original paths. I can't find any VB code, hidden worksheets, hidden cells,etc to find the source of this item being created. I have even deleted all VB modules and worksheets except a blank sheet and it still creates the item. Somewhere this menu bar item is being created and I have no idea where. It acts the same on 4 different machines and acts the same on Excel 97, 2000, 2003 and 2007.
Trying to write a VBA code to add a new menu item with submenus on the Standard toolbar when Workbook_Open and then deleting it (_Before close). Just having trouble with the creating of the menu item. Here is what I have so far:
Sub Workbook_Open() ... Dim menuitem As CommandBarPopup Set Menu = Application.CommandBars("Menu Item").Controls.Add (Type:=msoControlPopup, Before:=13) ... End Sub
I have some old code I use to use that still works but instead of adding to the top menu, the new command button is added to the add-ins menu list and then burried with other items.
Public Sub test() Set myMenuBar = CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar Set newMenu = myMenuBar.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlPopup, temporary:=True) newMenu.Caption = "Blotter"
I am wondering if there is any code to SELECT (DESELECT) A MENU ITEM using VBA? I have an Excel Add-in program installed, which adds a Menu "Easycal" to my Excel menu bar. Under "Easycal" (drop down list), I have the following items:
I am using "Easycal"'s functions in various cells of my sheet "Final". When I select "Refresh worksheet" from "Final", "Easycal" fetches (or calculates) me the data from the "Easycal" database. I have a macro (on "Final") that pulls together data from other sheets of the same workbook. I there anyway to include a code in my existing macro, so that when I run the macro, the following are completed in sequence:
1. Select "Turnoff Easycal" menu item 2. Run my existing macro (to pull the data from other sheets to "Final") 3. DeSelect "Turnoff Easycal" menu item 4. Select "Refresh worksheet" menu item
I have added items to my "Cell" context menu but was wondering if there is a way to move one of the items to the Filter submenu. Below is the code I am using to customize the context menuI want to move the "Filter Status" item to the filter submenu.
Sub AddToRightClick()
Dim ContextMenu As CommandBar Dim ContextMenu2 As CommandBar
'This is for the normal view right click menu Set ContextMenu = Application.CommandBars("cell")
Just curious as to what could make a custom menu or custom button disappear from Excel upon opening it. I had created a custom menu with personal.xls macros in it for someone here a while back, and today it was completely missing.. although the Personal.xls folder still existed with the macros.
I am quite sure that they did not manually remove the menu by right-clicking and selecting Customize and dragging back the menu items...
I have created a nice custom menu but I only want to tie it to only appear when I open a specific template file or any other saved work book from the template file.
I have created an Addin from one I found on this site which creates a menu on the CommandBar. On this menu I can add my Macros. The Menu is initially supposed to perform a delete function then an add, just in case the menu already exists on the CommandBar. It is also supposed to Uninstall the menu when you de-select the Addin. At the moment it doesn't seem to be doing either, as I have now got 5 CommandBar menu's all the same and I can't delete them?
This also creates a problem of when I add another macro, the menu on the CommandBar doesn't update with the addition?
I have attached the .xla file for you to look at and see where I'm going wrong.
I'm trying to load a custom menu in a workbook to avoid having users to load an add in to use the spreadsheet. I'm trying to add this to the "this workbook" tab but I've never done this.
I have create a custom menu and want to add a choice and a subchoice that will guide the user to insert a number in an inputbox or under a list. Then the user's selected number it will be used as parameter for a vba code.
Eg.: The choice is: How many rows will be marked The subchoice : 10 (default value)
What i want is the following: If the user choose the above subchoice then it has to be appeared an inputbox or something like that in which he has to insert a number, eg. 45. After that the choice must shows
The choice: How many rows will be marked The subchoice: 45
This parameter must be active all the time that the user uses the workbook. At the end, if the user saves the workbook, the next time it will be opened, the subchoice must have the value 45.
Look at the attachment image to see exactly what i want Here's the code. Just copy it under a module
Option Explicit
Dim cbMenu As CommandBarControl Dim cbSubMenu As CommandBarControl Public MenuSeries
I was making a custom Menu Bar in excel. In order to troubleshoot I executed the code a no. of times, resulting in multiple but same menu bars in excel application. Now the problem is that even if I quit excel, the menu bars dont seem to go..How do I get rid of them.
I have downloaded a custom menu workbook attached. I am wanting to only show the custom menu in one workbook as it appears in all workbooks open at the time.
how to manage a custom faceid. Though, I am not too sure as to how to assign an actual icon to a custom toolbar. I can try the pasteface method; though as the source file is a .png; the picture might be too small.
I created an add-in with custom VBA and forms, which also stores user preferences in worksheets in the addin. When the add-in loads, it creates a custom menu on the Add-Ins ribbon that allows the user to run the main macro, or to assign a shortcut key of their choosing. It also allows them to enter registration information.
In Excel 2013, the code is all accessible since the add-in still loads, but it doesn't add the custom menu allowing users to interact with the macros. I'm told this is due to the switch to SDI.
It seems that adding Workbook_Open code to a normal file allows the custom menu to be created, but adding the same code to an add-in file does not work.
A spreadsheet that needs a new menu item in a custom menu does not show the custom menu code. Tools-->Customize-->Commands-->Rearrange Commands shows the menu and allows me to add a new menu item and macro.
After saving and exiting excel and going back into the spreadsheet, the new menu item is gone. How can I find the code to do this to keep the menu item? In the VBE, I looked in the object browser(F2) in all of the libraries and could not find the code. In the workbook_open and workbook_activate I can disable it with CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls("menu").Delete and it disappears.
how to change the name of a Command Button that I have called "Command Button" on the Tools menu.
Also if I have this button created in my Personal workbook and I send the file to another user what should I do? Will that user be able to see this button ok?
I have a workbook that creates three temporary menu buttons when I open it. These work fine until I try and open more then 1 workbook at a time. This creates duplicate menu buttons (3 times the number of workbooks that I open).
I call up the procedure when each workbook is opened using this code in the "ThisWorkbook" code area: ....
I added a menu command button to a toolbar in a specific workbook. The macro is housed only in that workbook and the macro needs to run on every worksheet in the workbook. However, the button also appears on EVERY Excel workbook that I open when it should not. How can I create a menu command that only appears in the workbook that contains the macro?
The following code for a custom menu is used in a workbook which has two sheets with embedded charts, two chart sheets and several sheets for calculations and information
In This Workbook
Private Sub Workbook_Activate() 'Changed Activate to Open Run "AddMenus" End Sub
and
Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate() 'Changed Deactivate to Close Run "DeleteMenu" End Sub
and
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean) Run "DeleteMenu" End Sub
I would like to use the attached "menu maker" file I found on Ron De Bruin's site using a Sheet to build the menu, yet be able to place it before the Help menu as suggested by this site [url] by finding the position of Help.
I have amended the code yet receive a "Compile error: Variable not defined" error.
i am considering the use of custom menus in an Excel application. is it possible to limit the selection of menu items for each worksheet? for example, sheet 1 all menu items are available, sheet 2 all but 2 menu items are available, sheet 3 all but 5 items are available.
I am working on building a custom menu and I am looking for the code that would open a specific workbook execute a macro when I select the tab, can this be done????
I've written a ton of VB macros that do various things to a raw data sheet. I want now to create a custom menu (in the the menu ribbon bar at the top of the screen). I'd like this menu to be used to activate the various macros for whoever has my add-in.
I've found several examples on how to create an add-in, and creating custom menus, however they all for when someone opens a workbook with the code, and then they remove the custom menu when the workbook is closed. I would like my custom menu to stay on the users ribbon bar no matter what workbook they have open. The only time the custom menu should not appear is if the user removes the add-in.
Option Explicit Dim cMenu1 As CommandBarControl Dim cbMainMenuBar As CommandBar Dim iHelpMenu As Integer Dim cbcCustomMenu As CommandBarControl
'(2)
Set cbMainMenuBar = Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar")
'(4)
Set cbcCustomMenu = cbMainMenuBar.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlPopup)
'(5) Give the control a caption................
I have created several spreadsheet with customized menus. In step 5 when I type a period the options for selecting Caption does not appear. In step 6 the 'Control' word didn't appear in list. Sometimes the options in step 6 do appear BUT not the option for Controls. I have created spreadsheets with menus that work but the only way I could do it was to cut and paste from the website and then modify it.
