Right mouse button
 

Hi,

I've lost the menu when you right click on the mouse, I have checked in
previous posts and followed the instructions. (VBE application.commandbars
etc.) This worked, however when I shut excel off and went back to it later
the menu had deactivated again. Is there a way of enabling this menu for good.

Thanks.

Hi Craigshelley

Then a Add-in or workbook that opens when you run Excel do this.
Uncheck all Addins in ToolsAdd-ins
Close /Reopen Excel and activate the add-ins one at the time and
see if the the right click menu is working after you activate each add-in

Thanks Ron, but I'm not sure if I understand exactly what you mean?!

If you're losing that menu, then something is making it go away.

Ron is guessing that you have an addin turned on or an excel workbook in your
XLStart folder that opens and "fixes" your toolbar.

His suggestion is to look in Tools|Addins and turn them all off (keep track of
what you did).

And close excel.

Then find your XLStart folder and move all the files out of that location (again
keep track).

Then start adding things back one at a time. When you find the culprit, you'll
have to either contact that developer and yell (or decide to keep it turned
off).
