I have a workbook that uses fullscreen mode. If the user lowers the EXCEL
window to consult another application, when the user comes back, the view is
now normal (not in fullscreen). Is there a way to stop this automatic
operation of EXCEL?

MD

As extra info... The reason why I use full screen is because I want all of
the toolbars to be off (hidden). Since not all user have the same toolbars
on (showing), by using fullscreen it hides them all. If you have another
way about this, I'm also open for ideas...

regards,
MD

No setting that does it.

Since it uses a collection of the toolbars... no matter what inventory of
toolbars you have...
Thought i'd share

MD


Dim UserToolbars As New Collection
Dim AppToolbars As New Collection Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Define_Toolbar_Collections
Display_App_Toolbars
End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Display_User_Toolbars
End Sub

Private Sub Define_Toolbar_Collections()
Set AppBars = Application.CommandBars
For Each tb In AppBars
If tb.Visible Then
UserToolbars.Add tb
End If
Next tb
End Sub

Private Sub Display_App_Toolbars()
On Error Resume Next
For Each tb In UserToolbars
tb.Visible = False
Next tb
For Each tb In AppToolbars
tb.Visible = True
Next tb
End Sub

Private Sub Display_User_Toolbars()
On Error Resume Next
For Each tb In AppToolbars
tb.Visible = False
Next tb
For Each tb In UserToolbars
tb.Visible = True
Next tb
End Sub
