Set oCb = Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar")
With oCb
Set oCtl = .Controls.Add( _
Type:=msoControlButton, _

Thanks again for the coding.

One other question.

If I were to put this in the Workbook_Open section to have the shortcut
button created when the workbook is opened then what coding would I put in
the Workbook_BeforeClose section to have the button removed?

Mike.
