CANT SAVE TOOLBAR CHANGES EXCEL 2003)
CANT SAVE EXCEL 2003 TOOLBARS
I have added a new custom toolbar to a new Excel 2003 worksheet and saved the worksheet. But when I re-open the saved worksheet, the new toolbar is gone. And, if I click on VIEW | TOOLBARS it is not there either. Also, when I open ANY old / existing document and change any toolbar, the next time I open the document, the changes are gone. For example, if I assign a different macro to one of the custom buttons on an existing toolbar, when I re-open the document the new assignment is lost and it always goes back to the old / original assignment. I have been creating and modifying toolbars and assigning macros to custom toolbar buttons for years. I am an experienced programmer. None of my other copies of Excel 2003 (on several other computers) give me this type of problems. I am extremely frustrated by this. Could there be a hidden system setting that might be preventing this installation of Excel from saving the changes that I make to toolbars? Please help. PS: In addition to replying to this bulletin board, it would be most helpful if you would also send a copy directly to my email address (paul628 at concentric dot net) because I might not be able to re-find this bulletin board.

CANT SAVE TOOLBAR CHANGES EXCEL 2003)
Bob: My newly created toolbar should come up each time I launch / open Excel
even if it (the new toolbar) was created while there were no files open. A new tool bar that was created when no files were open should not need to be €śattached€ť to any particular file. It works OK that way on all my other computers that have Excel2003. Only one PC is giving me that problem. On my newest computer, when I re-open Excel, the new toolbar is gone. -- Paul6238 (Email paul628 at concentric dot net) "Bob Umlas" wrote: saving the workbook does NOT sate the changes to toolbars.
