This file might be a help:
http://www.bygsoftware.com/examples/...tiveWbDemo.zip

It's in the "Menu Routines" section on page:
http://www.bygsoftware.com/examples/examples.htm

It contains VBA code that will activate a menu only when the workbook it is
in is active.
The code is open and commented.

Hoe do I get a macro to auto open and auto remove? I have
the macros below that I want to add a menu item when I
open the workbook its in and remove it when I close the
workbook. I have been playing with it and can't get it to
work.

Can anyone help?
