Placing a toolbar and it moves
 

I apologise if we should know this (or if I should have been able to find
it), but...

When I start Excel I have a floating toolbar. If I move it up to the other
toolbar it stays there while I have Excel open. But as soon as I close and
re-start Excel it's back where it was originally.

I really didn't mind this too much (a bit annoying) but recently a user had
a similar problem with a different toolbar, it also starting out in the same
position each time.

I read some articles here and some mentioned *.xlb files - I could not find
any on my system (haven't had a chance to check the other user's system).

We're running Excel 2003, but he had previously had this problem with Excel
2002 as well before, I believe.

Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks

How does the toolbar get created? You can always position it yourself.

Maybe in Personal.xls, add some code to the workbook open event to place it

Application.CommandBars("myToolbar").Position = msoBarTop
