Default Custom Context menu (Right click menu) not working in sheet changeevent.

Hi all,
I face a small problem.

Following code works fine.
Sub ADD_COMMAND()
CommandBars("Cell").Reset
With Application.CommandBars("Cell").Controls
With .Add
.Caption = "OGP"
.OnAction = ThisWorkbook.Name & "OGP"
.Tag = OGPTAG
.BeginGroup = True
' .Temporary = True <<<<<< THIS LINE NOT WORKING
SO COMMENTED OUT
End With
End With
CommandBars("cell").Controls("OGP").FaceId = 44
End Sub

However, If I place the same code in worksheet activate event it does
not work.
Private Sub Workbook_SheetActivate(ByVal Sh As Object)
If Sh.Name < "ALVXXL01" Then
Exit Sub
End If
CommandBars("Cell").Reset <<<<<< error out
here .
With Application.CommandBars("Cell").Controls
With .Add
.Caption = "OGP"
.OnAction = ThisWorkbook.Name & "OGP"
.Tag = OGPTAG
.BeginGroup = True
' .Temporary = True
End With
End With
CommandBars("Cell").Controls("OGP").FaceId = 44
End Sub

Can somebody point out the mistake I am making please.

Regards,
Madiya

A control does not have a Temporary property. Rather the Controls.Add
method has a Temporary parameter:

With Application.CommandBars("Cell").Controls
With .Add(Temporary:=True)
.Caption = "OGP"
''Etc.



CommandBars("Cell").Reset


Use:

Application.CommandBars("Cell").Reset

in a sheet or workbook module.

Default Custom Context menu (Right click menu) not working in sheetchange event.

Hi Jim,
Thanks for help. Perfact.
Another small problem. I am putting this macros in an addin.
I want to show custom button only if sheet name is "ALVXXL01".
If any other sheet is activated or any other file with different sheet
name is activated/opened then this control will be deleted.
If any file having same sheet name is activated then the control will
be shown up.

Will you pl advise, how shall I proceed?

Thanks again.
Regards,
Madiya.

I might suggest that a far simpler way to go is to just check whether the
right sheet is active after the user clicks the button. To make a button
visible or not dynamically from an add-in you have to raise the bar quite a
bit in terms of complexity. But it's well worth learning about this area if
you really want to advance your developer skills.
