Dave,
Thanks for the replies and your help. I really appreciate it. I definitely plan to use your technique going forward. Have a great day!

If you move to another pc, then you're going to have the same problem. But if you want, you could look at this code: http://groups.google.co.uk/group/mic....misc/browse_f... or http://snipurl.com/hwet I still think building the toolbars on the fly is easier in the long run. Tim879 wrote: I see how the second link works, but unless I am misunderstanding your point, that would mean I need to recreate my toolbars. Is there any way to do this where I don't have to recreate them? On Oct 30, 9:01 pm, Dave Peterson wrote: The second link is what I use when I want a toolbar. Tim879 wrote: Thanks for the great tip. I was considering this option but didn't know how to do it and wasn't sure if I could "export" my current settings somehow so that I don't have to recreate the menus from scratch.

For additions to the worksheet menu bar, I really like the way John Walkenbach does it in his menumaker workbook:http://j-walk.com/ss/excel/tips/tip53.htm Here's how I do it when I want a toolbar:http://www.contextures.com/xlToolbar02.html (from Debra Dalgleish's site) Tim879 wrote: I am trying to transfer my macros / menus from my work PC to my home PC. I have located my personal.xls and also my Excel11.xlb file and copied them to my home PC. I created a lot of toolbars that refer to the many macros I've created, problem is that when I click on these menu buttons on my home PC, they try to run the macro from the folder where I store my personal.xls at work. i.e. my personal.xls is currently stored in: C:\Documents and Settings\***Carly***\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel \XLSTART When I click on when of the menu buttons I've created, it looks for the macro in C:\Documents and Settings\***bradshti***\Application Data\Microsoft \Excel\XLSTART I added the *'s to emphasize the difference. I know how to assign a macro to a menu button but this isn't really feasible to do for the 100+ buttons I have. Is there anyway to change where these toolbars look for my macros? I can't find any place to edit this path. -- Dave Peterson -- Dave Peterson -- Dave Peterson |
