Move the declaration for myControl outside the functions at the module
level. Then call myControl.Delete in _BeforeClose.

The above codes are in the ThisWorkbook. Do you mean i have to create a
new module & place declaration there?

One way is to mark your controls as yours. Then you can just clean up all that
belong to you. (Nice when you add the second, third, ... controls).

Option Explicit
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Call CleanUpControls
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_Open()

Dim myControl As CommandBarControl

Call CleanUpControls

Set myControl = Application.CommandBars("Formatting").Controls _
.Add(Type:=msoControlButton, ID:=2950, Befo=19, temporary:=True)
With myControl
.DescriptionText = "Pastes the Data from Windows Clipboard"
.Caption = "Paste the Clipboard"
.OnAction = "PasteTxT"
.Style = msoButtonIconAndCaption
.Tag = "__Sifar__"
End With
End Sub

Sub CleanUpControls()
Dim ctrl As CommandBarControl

Do
Set ctrl = Nothing
On Error Resume Next
Set ctrl = Application.CommandBars("Formatting") _
.FindControl(Tag:="__Sifar__")
On Error GoTo 0

If ctrl Is Nothing Then
Exit Do
Else
ctrl.Delete
End If
Loop

End Sub

Hi, I get Error message "Cannot find Project Library" &
msoCommandButton gets highlighted.

What do i do?

have loaded the Addins viz., Analysis toolpack, Analysis Toolpack-VBA,
selected references viz, MS Forms 2.0 in References.

Does it mean that Excel not fully installed on PC?

How do i load all these files on Workbook_open() using VBA????

That code worked ok for me.

My bet is that you got extra characters when you copied from Google. Google
seems to add extra spaces and dashes in bad spots.

You may be able to connect directly to the newsgroup and copy from there.

Creating a Custom commandbar button
 

Hi Dave,

Its nothing to with your code. getting the same message at a Cybercafe
PC. works fine on my Home PC.

Made some changes to your code.....

Sub CleanUpControls()
Dim cbar As CommandBar
Dim ctrl As CommandBarControl

Do
Set cbar = Nothing
Set ctrl = Nothing
On Error Resume Next
Set cbar = Application.CommandBars("PastyFellow")
Set ctrl = cbar.FindControl(Tag:="Sifar")
On Error GoTo 0

If ctrl Is Nothing Then
Exit Do
Else
ctrl.Delete
cbar.Delete
End If
Loop

End Sub

This worked fine for me by deleting the CustomCommandBar along with the
Control.

Please advice.

First, I think I'd move that cbar stuff out of the loop.

Option Explicit
Sub CleanUpControls()
Dim cbar As CommandBar
Dim ctrl As CommandBarControl
Set cbar = Nothing
Set ctrl = Nothing

Set cbar = Application.CommandBars("PastyFellow")

Do
Set ctrl = Nothing
On Error Resume Next
Set ctrl = cbar.FindControl(Tag:="Sifar")
On Error GoTo 0

If ctrl Is Nothing Then
Exit Do
Else
ctrl.Delete
End If
Loop

cbar.Delete

End Sub

Second, on the troublesome pc, look under Tools|References.

If you see a reference marked MISSING, then maybe unchecking that reference
would fix the problem. I've never seen this error with a constant, though--but
it'll be easy to check.
