Default How Is CHOOSESHEET.XLA Removed?


Installed it a while ago. Now would like to remove it as the spreadsheet
has grown to 750 sheets and populating the CHOOSESHEET menu takes much
longer than going to an Index sheet with links to each sheet.

Tools | Addins | and deselecting CHOOSESHEET.XLA doesn't seem to do it
as it still shows on the tool bar and in the IDE window.

Clicking on it in the VBA Project Explorer Window prompts for a
password.

Clicking on the initial file installs a second icon on the tool bar.

What is the trick?

Open excel
Make sure "choosesheet.xla" is loaded.
open the VBE (alt-f11)
hit ctrl-g to see the immediate window

type this and hit enter:
?workbooks("choosesheet.xla").fullpath

make a note of that location

Close excel
Find that workbook and move it somewhere else.

===
Restart excel
try the tools|addins once more (to de-select it)
You'll be prompted to remove it from the list, since excel can't find it.

===
If the addin was in your XLStart folder, then that could explain why the
tools|addins attempt didn't work.

For some reason
?workbooks("choosesheet.xla").fullpath
triggered
"Run-time error 438. Object doesn't support this property or method."

So I used Yahoo Desktop Search to find the file, renamed it, restarted
Excel|Tools|Addins|ChooseSheet.XLA.

As you predicted it is now just a memory.

Thanks so much.
