You could try this:

Close excel
Use windows Start button|find to search for *.xlb
rename it (or them) to *.xlbOLD.

restart excel and load your menu.

If your macro didn't change, maybe it was the file where excel stores customized
toolbars.

If that didn't work, then rename your *.xlbOLD back to *.xlb

(if it did work, you'll have to rebuild any manual changes to your toolbars.)

Excel XP, Windows XP. I am adding a commandbar item with vba in a code
that has been running for many years. The item does not appear in the
Tools menu where it should be. I can poll the item successfully from
the editor, so it is somewhere on the tools menu, but simply will not
appear. .visible is true. This one has me baffled. I do have Excel
set to show full menus, changing this setting has no effect. BTW, the
code successfully shows the appropriate item on another computer, same
configuration.

Thanks for any help.
