Why not put the pictures in a hidden worksheet in the workbook that creates
the toolbar.

I've got a toolbar which gets its button pictures from a
separate folder. Ideally i would like this folder to be
hidden, but when ever i do, excel can't find it and i end
up with blank buttons.

Does anyone know how to tell excel that it's looking for
a hidden file or something like that.
