I have a personal.xls which was created in a previous version of Excel by someone else. This personal.xls has a custom menu in it and I am trying to add a new item to it.

I go through the Customise option, add the menu item etc, and point it at the new macro and save the personal.xls. I then close down Excel and re-launch it, and my menu item has vanished. I've even looked at coding the AutoOpen event to add the item programatically but haven't had a lot of time to play with it.

Am I doing something stupid (probably)?
