Macro Code To Create Custom Menus & Sub Menus

Jun 9, 2008

I am using the following code to create a custom command menu.

Sub AddMenus()
Dim cMenu1 As CommandBarControl
Dim cbMainMenuBar As CommandBar
Dim iHelpMenu As Integer
Dim cbcCustomMenu As CommandBarControl
On Error Resume Next
Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls("&New Menu").Delete
On Error Goto 0
Set cbMainMenuBar = Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar")..........................

I want to add a new button control at the bottom of the menu underneath the holiday control but it keeps adding it on the sub menu, which leads off the holiday button control. I want the menu to look like this.

Open Net 2 Access
Add Employee
Edit Employee
Delete Employee
Holidays (3 options on sub menu)
*New Control

Multiple Pull-down Menus

Mar 1, 2010

I have the following fields:

Manufacturer:System:Part Number:Material Description:
I want to make each field a "pulldown menu".

For simplicity, lets say I have three Manufacturers "A", "B" & "C"

Each Manufacturer has three systems "1", "2" & "3"

Each System has 100 parts "1-001" thru "1-100", "2-001" thru "2-100" & "3-001" thru "3-100". Each part has a corresponding description such as "Horizontal", "Vertical", "cover", etc...

I need to keep all of the manufacturers, systems, parts and descriptions in one excel workbook. I have no preference to how that information is built (tabular, list, etc..) I would like the workbook in which i want the fields above to be separate, so I only have to keep updating one master file that all of our takeoff sheets would be linked to.

when I select a manufacturer, I only want the available systems for that manufacturer to show up in the next pull down menu, then for that system I select I only want the available parts for that system to show up in the next menu. the descriptions need to correlate with the parts I select.

Select Multiple Dropdown Menus At Once?

Mar 9, 2013

I have a 'diet diary' that I have built in excel that has many of the common meals I eat and details calories, carbohydrates, fats, etc and I use it to keep track of what I have eaten in the day.

However, one of the features is that on the front sheet I have lots of drop down menus that I select the different things (example, milk, banana, spaghetti bolognese) which in that puts in the nutritional info. However, each day I have different numbers of items to put in so I have to change the slots that no longer have an item in back to the default value so that it doesn't add calories. What would be ideal is if I could highlight a bunch of boxes at once and then make them all select the 'no-item' option in the drop down box simultaneously rather than selecting them all individually.

Custom Menus And Sub Menus For 2007

Feb 3, 2010

From this link: [url]

there is some clever code to create a customized menu in a dynamic Add-Ins section of the Excel ribbon; this section disappears when the workbook is deactivated and re-appears when it is activated. The custom menu has 2 main items each of which can launch a macro. There is also a 3rd main item called "Next Menu" which cascades nicely to a sub-menu. That sub-menu can have several items of its own. Very cool code.

However, I am trying to add a 4th item in the main menu, say, "Next Menu2" which also cascades to a sub-menu. The problem I'm having is when I try to replicate this code to accomplish this, "Next Menu2" appears in the sub-menu of "Next Menu", rather than as a separate (4th) main item below "Next Menu".

I believe there was another post (not sure of the date, but has since expired) which asked basically the same question as mine. There was a reply with code saying "This should work" but when I tried it, it didn't help.

Lost The Menus

Apr 3, 2009

Having recently started to get involved in Visual Basic I have managed to write some code that has removed all of my menus except for File and Help. In a blind panic I deleted what I think was the offending VB code in a vain attempt to return the menus. This didn't work. I am now stumped.

Also, I managed to change the way the Cell selection works when I press Return. When I press Return, Excel now selects the cell to the right of the one I was in rather than the one below it. Is there a way I can change this back?

Custom Context Menus For Any WB (using Add-in?)

Jan 12, 2010

Ok, so I have this neat little macro that on right-click brings up a custom context menu that displays a few different options - for example one such function is simply copying the selected cell content to a (specific) different sheet. It is a very useful feature in the context I am normally using it to merge information from different locations in a new structure (well, I think this is irrelevant, but just letting you know basically what I am doing).

Anyhow, to implement the custom context menu, I am using events in the ThisWorkbook object, namely Activate to add context menu entries and DeActivate to remove them if switching workbook.

Now, if I receive any workbook from someone else, I'd like to add this feature to get the custom context menu easily without having to copy the received workbook into a new workbook (it's a bit of a hassle, and ideally, if the received workbook has any other macros, this function could just be merged). I was thinking using an add-in to achieve this, but using the ThisWorkbook events in the add-in doesn't trigger the events (I guess because the hidden workbook in the add-in is never "Activated" or "DeActivated").

User Forms / Menus

Nov 21, 2006

I am trying to graduate out of the crayon age of menus on a worksheet, to using a User Form Menu. Problem is, I don't understand how they work. I've created a test program using a simple form with an option button, a combo button, and a command button. The goal is if the option button is true, it places the color selected in the combo button on the worksheet. Here is my code, what am I missing to make it work?

Corrected code from my original request

Module 1

Public ClrCd As Integer

Sub OpenForm1()
UsrFrm1.Show
End Sub

Custom Menus Available To One Workbook

Sep 24, 2008

There was an article in ozgrid new about excel custom toolbars (<<hover over). The article addressed making the custom menu option available in one workbook with Private Sub Worksheet modules as follows

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls _
("My Menu").Enabled = True
End Sub

Private Sub Worksheet_Deactivate()
Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls _
("My Menu").Enabled = False
End Sub

How do you get the first module to run apon opening the workbook and the second module to run when you close the workbook.

Validation Dropdown Menus Disappearing

Dec 10, 2004

I am compiling questionnaires in Excel and need to constrain the answers. I've successfully used validate, list and directed it to a list (containing, for example, 'USB', 'Firewire', 'SCSI'. When I first set this up, the drop down menu appeared (and the prompt message I had created). After I copied the first worksheet to use as the base for my next questionnaire, the drop down menu disappeared, although the prompt still shows and the validation still works.

Have I missed something fundamental?

I've tried creating one on a brand new workbook and copying the worksheet and it seems to function correctly. Why has my drop down menu vanished???

Custom Menus 2000 Vs 2007

Feb 6, 2009

We are currently on Office 2000, but our IT group are considering a company wide switch to 2007. I've played around with it just briefly, but noticed that it is night and day difference in both look and feel.

We use Hyperion Essbase, and have a custome built planning tool that utilizes Excel 2000, enhaced with a few thousand lines of VBA coding. One of the main purposes of the VBA code, is to control the Excel menus and replace with custom built menus that are specific to our Planning System.

Does anyone have any idea if VBA controlled custom menus from Excel 2000 will even work in 2007? Will I have to do complete rewrite?

One last question, If you are running 2007, is there a transition function (simlar) to prior versions, where you make the menus look like the legacy version?

Drop-down Menus For Each Cell In The Column

Dec 2, 2006

I have an excel sheet with Column H having drop down menus for each cell In the column, starting with H5 going downwards.

The drop-down menu contains around 50-70 options, and what I have to do manually is go to h5 and click on the drop-down menu and select the first value. I then go to h6 and click on the drop-down menu and select the second value. I then go to h7 and click on the drop-down menu and select the third value. I then go to h8 and click on the drop-down menu and select the fourth value.....and so on and so on.....until I have chosen all values in the drop down-menu!

Is there a macro that will just do this automatically? Starting with cell h5 get the first value of the drop down menu, go to h6 and get the second value of the drop-down menu and so on until all the values are chosen?

If you manage this one, I also need to do something similar for column K, but this time select the first value of the drop down menu for k5 AND k6, then get the second value of the drop down menu for k7 AND k8, then get the third value from the drop-down menu for k9 AND k10 and so on.

Linking Pulldown Menus With Associated Date

Sep 16, 2009

1) When creating a pull down menu using the "data/validation/settings/list etc", is it possible to have a continious list from the pull down menu even if your range of inputs have blank cells between them?

2) How can you then link a selection made in one column with the associated data in another column(s)? i.e. a spreadsheet which has a column with the number of legs an animal has. The next column has the name of the animal(s) associated with that number. so selecting 4 from the pull down menu would then display, dog, cat, elephant etc in the adjacent column.

Sharing Custom Menus & Their Macros

Aug 26, 2008

Our ERP system generates reports in CSV. I have created a custom excel menu, which houses a lot of buttons that launch various macros to format these reports. I have been asked to share these formatting macros with other users.

I understand that the custom menu structures are stored in an excel11.xlb file. My thought was to simply replace the users *.xlb file. This only half worked. I get the menus and the macros, but when the users try to run the macros from the menu excel can't find them because the path is pointing to my user name.

Menus Not Available Opening In Internet Explorer

Nov 27, 2006

I have been searching for ages for a solution/reason to this problem. Either i am using the wrong search terms or the information is not out there. I have created an intranet type series of pages for the laboratory i work in. These pages contain information on current orders, chemical lists, stock lists etc. The vast majority of these lists are kept as excel spreadsheets.

The problem i am having is that when you open one of these sheets in internet explorer you can not always have acces to all the menus (format, data, insert etc). All you can get is file, goto, favorites and help. Sometimes you have full access to all the menus and other times you do not. Originally i thought this was due to a copy of the file being open on another computer already but this does not seem to be the case.

Prevent Customization Of Menus And Toolbars

Nov 20, 2007

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?
