I use the following code to remove and restore the User's Toolbars.

Sub UserToolBars(State)
Static UserToolBars As New Collection
Dim UserBar
If State = xlOn Then
For Each UserBar In Application.CommandBars
If UserBar.Type < 1 And UserBar.Visible Then
UserToolBars.Add UserBar
UserBar.Visible = False
End If
Next UserBar
Else
For Each UserBar In UserToolBars
UserBar.Visible = True
Next
End If
End Sub

Call the routine with
UserToolBars ( xlOn )
to hide and save the toolbars, and with
UserToolBars ( xlOff )
to restore them..

You need to handle your own separately of course

How do I go about declaring a workbook array that I can use at any point
during a sub?

The problem I have is this...

I'm hiding a users toolbars and creating some of my own, for a specific
application I'm developing. When they open the Workbook I assign all
enabled
commandbars to an array so I can do what I want with them. When they close
the workbook I want to re-enable all of the ones I disabled earlier, but
can't see how to do it.

I'm using Office 2000.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
