I have a workbook that has something like 20 sheets so i've created
pull down menu from the menu bar that will display and hide sheet
according to how i've grouped them. Displaying the sheets works fine
The thing that I don't know how to do is to hide the sheets. I woul
like the user to be able to view multiple groups of sheets at a time
Ideally, I would like my pull down menu to be like the one under Vie
where there is a checkbox for Formula Bar and Status Bar. below is m
code for the pull down menu

With newMenu
.Caption = "Bars2004"
Set ctrlButton = .Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton
ID:=1)
With ctrlButton
.Caption = "bla"
.Style = msoButtonCaption
.OnAction = "viewDS"
End With
Set ctrlButton = .Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton
ID:=1)
With ctrlButton
.Caption = "blabla"
.Style = msoButtonCaption
.OnAction = "viewEG"
End With
Set ctrlButton = .Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton
ID:=1)
With ctrlButton
.Caption = "blablabla"
.Style = msoButtonCaption
.OnAction = "viewAK"
End With
End Wit

If I understood your question correctly then try this:

To show groups of sheets you can use the Custom Views.
Unhide all sheets of a group and hide the others.
Then create in the menu View | Custom Views a new view.
Do the same for the other groups.

Write the names of the Custom Views beside the Tag property of the
respective ControlButtons. Only one macro is needed for all Custom Views.

Sub MyViewMenu()
Dim newMenu As CommandBarPopup

On Error Resume Next
Application.CommandBars(1).Controls("Bars2004").De lete
On Error GoTo 0
Set newMenu = Application.CommandBars(1).Controls.Add( _
Type:=msoControlPopup, Temporary:=True)
With newMenu
.Caption = "Bars2004"
With .Controls.Add
.Caption = "bla_DS"
.OnAction = "MyCustomViews"
.Tag = "DS" ' name of the Custom View
End With
With .Controls.Add
.Caption = "blabla_EG"
.OnAction = "MyCustomViews"
.Tag = "EG"
End With
With .Controls.Add
.Caption = "blablabla_AK"
.OnAction = "MyCustomViews"
.Tag = "AK"
End With
End With
End Sub

Sub MyCustomViews()
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews(Application.CommandBars .ActionControl.Tag).Show
With Application.CommandBars(1).Controls("Bars2004")
.Controls(1).State = msoButtonUp
.Controls(2).State = msoButtonUp
.Controls(3).State = msoButtonUp
.Controls(Application.CommandBars.ActionControl.Ca ption) _
.State = msoButtonDown
End With
End Sub
