Replace existing custom toolbar with an updated version
Hi,
I have a custom toolbar that is used by me and several of my colleagues. I have made some improvements to the toolbar based on requests of my colleagues but I am unable to distribute it to them. For whatever reason their .xls stick to the previous version. I have tried explicitly attaching the toolbar to a workbook and asking the colleagues to use the concerned workbook, but it does not seem to work. Any ideas on how I could get their .xls to discard the old version and use the new version of the custom toolbar? All help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in anticipation. |

Replace existing custom toolbar with an updated version
I don't know whether I would be able to answer your question or not,
but I had a similar software developed using VBA: What I did was this: Run this subroutine Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose() -- Application.CommandBars("your toolbar name").Delete End Sub And then you can put the new toolbar in the Workbook_BeforeOpen Subroutine Regards, Ravi On Feb 28, 10:16*am, DKS wrote: Hi, I have a custom toolbar that is used by me and several of my colleagues. *I have made some improvements to the toolbar based on requests of my colleagues but I am unable to distribute it to them.

Replace existing custom toolbar with an updated version
Thanks for your tip. I will give it a try. But I sure as hell hope that
there is a better way to do it because I have many colleagues who are using it, and if I need all of them to run a macro to clean up their files and get a new version then it is going to be a pain.
