I'd create a single addin that did the work. Then I'd either place that addin
in a common location (on a network drive that everyone can read) and let the
users install the addin.

If that's not possible (remote users--or users who are not always connected to
the network), then I'd distribute an addin with the instructions that it has to
be saved in the same folder on everyone's pc.

C:\WorkAddins\LisasUtils.xla

By using the same location, it'll make life much easier if workbooks are shared
between co-workers.

But by creating an addin, I'd have to give the users a way to execute those
macros.

For additions to the worksheet menu bar, I really like the way John Walkenbach
does it in his menumaker workbook:

or

Here's how I do it when I want a toolbar:

(from Debra Dalgleish's site)

And if you use xl2007:

If you want to learn about modifying the ribbon, you can start at Ron de Bruin's
site:
http://www.rondebruin.nl/ribbon.htm
http://www.rondebruin.nl/qat.htm -- For macros for all workbooks (saved as an
addin)
or
http://www.rondebruin.nl/2007addin.htm

In xl2007, those toolbars and menu modifications will show up under the addins.

Hi all -

When I copy a worksheet, I need to be able to use the same macros for the
new sheet. The problem I am having is that when I go to the newly copied
sheet, and run the macro, it goes back to the previous sheet. Is there a way
to have the macro reference the new sheet?
