With the help of many of you I have managed to put together a great tool for
my job.
Most of the tool relies on custom menus with scripts written (or recorded)
in Excel 2003.
Now that I am using 2007 I do not see the same menus (for obvious reasons).
I was wondering if there was a way (by add-in or whichever) that the menu
bars can appear as the did in 2003 in the 2007 version. Sort of classic view
for an XP desktop.
Otherwise I may have to resort to using 2003 which I am not too happy about.

Thankyou oh wise ones,
G

Hi Mr BT

You can try this to make your menus on the ribbon or use the examples
that use the old commandbars to create a menu that you can call in the QAT

Unfortunately 2007 does not support a classic view.

You can create custom ribbon tabs and groups though similar to the custom
commandbars you create in 2003. Ron gave you a link in his response.

I have seen that before Ron (and I believe there is another which escape me
at present), but haven't tried it, must give it a try.

I was correct in saying that 2007 doesn't support it though <BG.
