I would like to create a menu with up to 10 options and have the ability to
accept input of a number from the menu which corresponds to one of the menu
options.
I have just started using my Excel 97 so as much detail as possible would be
appreciated.
Thank You

Frenchy,

'If you put code in the appropriate workbook open event, and
'delete it in the close it will exist only for that workbook.

'Here is an example of a building a commandbar on the fly
'when you open a workbook. It adds a sub-menu to the Tools menu.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim oCb As CommandBar
Dim oCtl As CommandBarPopup
Dim oCtlBtn As CommandBarButton

Set oCb = Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar")
With oCb
Set oCtl = .Controls("Tools").Controls.Add( _
Type:=msoControlPopup, _
temporary:=True)
oCtl.Caption = "myButton"
With oCtl
Set oCtlBtn = .Controls.Add( _
Type:=msoControlButton, _
temporary:=True)
oCtlBtn.Caption = "myMacroButton"
oCtlBtn.FaceId = 161
oCtlBtn.OnAction = "myMacro"
End With
With oCtl
Set oCtlBtn = .Controls.Add( _
Type:=msoControlButton, _
temporary:=True)
oCtlBtn.Caption = "myMacroButton2"
oCtlBtn.FaceId = 161
oCtlBtn.OnAction = "myMacro2"
End With
'etc.
End With
End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Dim oCb As CommandBar

Set oCb = Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar")
oCb.Controls("Tools").Controls("myButton").Delete
End Sub

'To add this, go to the VB IDE (ALT-F11 from Excel), and in
'the explorer pane, select your workbook. Then select the
'ThisWorkbook object (it's in Microsoft Excel Objects which
'might need expanding). Double-click the ThisWorkbook and
'a code window will open up. Copy this code into there,
'changing the caption and action to suit.

'This is part of the workbook, and will only exist with the
'workbook, but will be available to anyone who opens the
'workbook.
