I've set-up a customized menu and other options for a worksheet that
functions as a form. I was able to save out the XLB file with the
customizations.
How do I start the worksheet with the XLB file from a shortcut?

I've tried a string like, P:\TESApps\CI\Estim1.xlb
P:\TESApps\CI\estimatesCI1a.xls as the target in the shortcut but was only
able to start Excel with the XLB file with no worksheet loaded.Is there a way
to do this?

THanks for your help

I wouldn't do this.

You could attach the toolbar to the workbook itself. See Jan Karel Pieterse's
site:

Step 3 or 4.

Or look at how John Walkenbach does it in his menumaker workbook:

Here's how I do it when I want a toolbar:
