I send my excel workbook to other individuals in my office who may have to
cover for me in my absence. I have several command macro buttons attached to
the toolbar when I open my workbook, however , though the macros are still
intact, the buttons do not appear on the receipients email.

Is there a way to send my email so the buttons and macros are intact?

It'll work easier when/if I share the file -- or even just move the file.

For additions to the worksheet menu bar, I really like the way John Walkenbach

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

And if you use xl2007:

If you want to learn about modifying the ribbon, you can start at Ron de Bruin's
