I am using Excel 2003 and created a Pivot report to be used by multiple
users. Periodically, the data needs to be refreshed. The 'Pivot Table'
command bar was not loading when other users opened the file, so I added the
following in the WB code:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.CommandBars("PivotTable").Visible = True
End Sub

The command bar now loads, however, is greyed out for the other users. What
can be added to this sub-routine to enable this command bar?

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Application.CommandBars("PivotTable").Visible = True
Application.CommandBars("PivotTable").Enabled = True

Hi Atishoo,

I copied the line and added it to my WB code, saved the file and had another
user open it - the Command Bar remains greyed out. Any other thoughts? I
don't understand why the Pivot Command bar is OK on my document, but no one
elses!
