You could copy the macro into the workbook.

Thanks, Bob. Time for Plan B.

Ed,
It can't refer back to a VB App. Think about it, the VB app will run,
create
the toolbar and then finish. The button could be clicked at any time
after,
and there is no app to call back into.
You can run a macro in the same workbook, another workbook, and you
could
even have a macro that is simply a bridge into a DLL if you so wanted,
but
not your parent app as far as I can see.

I'm using a Visual Basic app to open a workbook and set a custom menu
in
it.
It works okay, as far as I have it (thanks to much help from the Excel
and
VB NG gurus!). The idea driving this is to remove all code from the
workbook - it's causing errors for my users.
Now I need to set the OnAction property of my menu items. Must
OnAction
always refer to a macro in the workbook? Can I set OnAction to refer
back
to a sub in the VB app? If this is possible, how would this look when
coded?
