This toolbar was not created by my company. This toolbar and associated
macros were created by Village Software and came bundled in Office 2000 when
we purchased it. I spoke to the person who setup our small office network
and he feels confident that they are written in VBA.

I read Debra Dalgleish's site for creating a toolbar through code. When I
look at the same workbook in both Excel 2000 and Excel 2003, I see that the
exact same Add-Ins are installed. The macros still work. The toolbar just
doesn't appear in Excel 2003.

I do not have a file named Excel9.xlb residing on my PC. The closest thing
I have is the file Excel9.olb.

I hope this clarifies things a little more.

How did you create the custom toolbar?

If not through code, the custom toolbar will be found in your Excel9.xlb
file where it was originally created.

Attaching toolbars to a workbook is not a good idea and can fail as you have
found out.

To have a custom toolbar available across versions, it is best to create the
toolbar through VBA code.

See Debra Dalgleish's site for creating a toolbar through code.

I'm hoping someone can help with this problem I have a workbook created in
excel 2000 with macros in it and also a custom toolbar. When I open the
workbook in excel 2003, the custom toolbar does not appear. When I go to
Tools/Customize/Toolbars/Attach Toolbars the name of my toolbar appears in
the right hand window (Toolbars in Workbook:), but the left hand window is
empty (Custom Toolbars:). My custom toolbar does not appear under
View/Toolbars either.

How can I get my custom toolbar into excell 2003?
