First.............To have the new bar for just the one workbook.............

In Thisworkbook module of the workbook in question.

'create bar on open
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
makemenewbar
End Sub

'delete bar on close
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
On Error Resume Next
CommandBars(1).Controls("Name of new bar").Delete
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub

Second..................

If you want the new bar for all workbooks, place the Sub makemenewbar()
into your Personal.xls.

Also stick the code above into Thisworkbook module of Personal.xls.

Make sure Personal.xls also has the macros 1, 2, 3 etc. that are assigned to
the submenus.

Or stick everything into a new workbook and save it as an add-in.

Thanks for replying in the follow up of this old post... still not understand
how you get to pick all new posts or continuation of old post but you guys
have been very helpfull for me.

I did use
On Error Resume Next
CommandBars(1).Controls("Name of new bar").Delete
On Error GoTo 0

And was able to keep just one copy of it but still can not make it go away
when I close the file just go away when I close excel completely...
I have two questions...

HOW DO I DELETE IT BEFORE CLOSING THE FILE?
HOW DO I KEEP IT THERE EVEN BEFORE I CLOSE EXCEL? so it stays forever.

Hi Anders,
try this one:

Sub makemenewbar()
Set mynewbar = CommandBars(1).Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlPopup,
Temporary:=True)
With mynewbar
..Caption = "Name of new bar"
End With

Set button1 = mynewbar.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton)
With button1
.Caption = "Button1"
.OnAction = "macro1"
End With

Set mysubmenu = mynewbar.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlPopup)
With mysubmenu
.Caption = "Submenu1"
'.OnAction = "sheets_startuf"
End With

Set button2 = mysubmenu.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton)
With button2
.Caption = "Button2 name"
.OnAction = "macro2"
End With

Set button3 = mysubmenu.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton)
With button3
.Caption = "Button3 name"
.OnAction = "macro3"
End With
End Sub
