You can add the macro's to your personal.xls but creating the menu's with code is what I like

Have you try the cell menu example ? and run the code in this two events in the thisworkbook module

Private Sub Workbook_Activate()

End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()

End Sub

Well, I tried it but now the problem is that when I generate a new month and
try to use the commands it automatically opens the original workbook. so if I
archive it or move it the toolbar no longer works. How do I fix that?

Thanks Much.

Rob

Use Add to create your own Toolbar and add buttons to it that run your macro's
See Excel help for more

Or you can add them with code to the right click menu for example when you activate the workbook and
delete them when you deactivate it

I have a workbook with sheets for everyday of the month in it. I want to add
common command buttons that are visible and usable in every sheet. That way
it will automate some routine actions.

Right now I have six command buttons and 485 lines of code for Just One
worksheet that is not yet populated with daily meta-data.

My question is -- how do I "Share" the buttons and the code for the buttons
accross all 30 sheets without having to copy&paste them and the code into
every worksheet because if I do that then the size of the file grows and the
reaction time of the spreadsheet is decreased?

I've tried using "ThisWorkbook" and Modules but I still have to place the
buttons into everyworks sheet and then configure every button like this...

Private Sub DoThis_Click()
ThisWorksheet.SetCustomBorders
End Sub

Any help would be very nice.
Thanks in Advance,
Rob
