go into the vbe and run this code

Sub showBar()
application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Enabled = True
'application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Visible = True
End Sub

If your main menu bar doesn't come back, then uncomment the second command
and run it again.

Now go to Tools=Customize and select the toolbars you want visible.

Depending on what the code did, you might then have to write code to
reenable specific popups.

Ah, guys, I did something really silly this morning. I found code in a
msg
in the archives that was really neat but it didn't discriminate between
valid toolbars and the ones that might remain inadvertently open and for
which I'd need to close. I won't go into the whys/wherefores only that
I
clicked on the icon I'd used the assign the macro to as it was in a
depressed state. It was silly, I know <g. And it was like magic. Now
you
see 'em / now you don't! <g I no longer have any menus and toolbars.
I
only have a formula bar under the title bar and the column/row
indicators.

Of course, renaming my xlb files gets me back to a mode with toolbars
that
are factory default ones, but I'd like to salvage my xlb file if
possible.
Without the pulldowns, as well as my regular toolbars, is there a way
around
this problem?

<g I hadn't done anything silly like this in quite a while, so I guess
I
was due. Thanks for any help in helping me get out of the corner I've
painted myself into. :oD
