In the Sub workbook_open add this line

Application.DisplayFormulaBar = False

Change to = True in the Sub workbook_beforeclose

Gord, Thanks a ton...it works!!! (but you knew it would)

One more question, and I know there may not be an answer. The formula bar
can be removed via tools/options etc. If the user has this selected for
their perferences can I un-select it some how when running my application and
the put it back when my application is closed.

Take the code out of the standard module and place it in the Thisworkbook
module.

To disable the right-click menu.......

Application.CommandBars("Cell").Enabled = False

I posted the other day and got some direction. Thank you Peter Ellis. Now I
need some help with what I found. I found a set of macros that should
disable on opening, and enable on closing. The problem is they don't work
and I am not literate in macro syntax. I have researched and all I have found
says they should work. Here is what I am trying to work with:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Enabled = True
Application.CommandBars("Standard").Enabled = False
Application.CommandBars("Formatting").Enabled = False
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Enabled = True
Application.CommandBars("Standard").Enabled = True
Application.CommandBars("Formatting").Enabled = True
End Sub
This is in a standard module.

I also nee to encorporate code to stop "copy & Paste from working, or at
least the window that come from a right mouse click.
