Disable "Hyperlink" menu item
Greetings
The following piece of code works fine: CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls("File").Controls("Save &As...").Enabled = False However, if I change it to try and disable the Hyperlink menu item, it will not work: CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls("Insert").Controls("Hyperl&ink...). Enabled = False I then attempted to do it by brute force with equal lack of success: For Each m1 In Application.CommandBars(1).Controls For Each m2 In m1.Controls If m2.Caption = "Hyperl&ink..." Then m2.Enabled = False End If Next m2 Next m1 Can anyone please explain to me why these methods fail to disable the Hyperlink menu item, and if there is a way to do it? Thanks and regards Murray |

Disable "Hyperlink" menu item
Murray,
With the addition of the missing " at the end of "Hyperl&ink...", it worked from the Immediate window: CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls("Insert").Controls("Hyperl&ink...") .Enabled = False There is also: CommandBars("Cell").Controls("Hyperl&ink...").Enab led = False which appears on the right-click menu of a cell.

Or use the ID, also working in non English Excel versions then Sub MenuControl_False() ' Excel 2000 - 2003 Dim Ctrl As Office.CommandBarControl For Each Ctrl In Application.CommandBars.FindControls(ID:=1567) Ctrl.Enabled = False Next Ctrl End Sub Sub MenuControl_True() ' Excel 2000 - 2003 Dim Ctrl As Office.CommandBarControl For Each Ctrl In Application.CommandBars.FindControls(ID:=1576) Ctrl.Enabled = True Next Ctrl End Sub See also http://www.rondebruin.nl/menuid.htm -- Regards Ron de Bruin http://www.rondebruin.nl/tips.htm "NickHK" wrote in message ...
