I've tried that already, as mentioned in my second paragraph. (BTW the
property is CommandBars, not Toolbars.)

You could try in the work book open.

I have an inherited workbook that contains a custom

toolbar named

"Vicky." Don't know why. The toolbar has no controls on

it. It shows

up in Tools* Customize* Toolbar, where I select and

delete it without

incident and save the wb after deleting. But it returns

the next time

that wb is opened.

I've done the usual elminations to ensure it's not in any

of my add-ins.

It doesn't show up in any other wb, and it appears when

opened on each

of 3 very different computers. There's no VBA code

anywhere in the

workbook. I've tried deleting it via code. Same result.

Being totally buttonless, it might not be so annoying

except that [1]

once turned off, it stays invisible only for the current

session, and

[2] while visible it claims an entire row of toolbar real

estate by

itself. I'd rather not rebuild it afresh, as the

structure is fairly

complicated. (Yes, I know I may have to.) What weapon

might cure this?

WinXP, Excel 2000 (on all PCs). Thanks for any clues.
