Hello
I have an example of a script by someone here in the ng (sorry don't recall
who it was) as the following:

Dim CmdBar As CommandBar
Dim CmdBarMenu As CommandBarControl
Dim CmdBarMenuItem As CommandBarControl
Set CmdBar = Application.CommandBars("My Menu Bar")
Set CmdBarMenu = CmdBar.Controls("Software")
Set CmdBarMenuItem = CmdBarMenu.Controls.Add
With CmdBarMenuItem
.Caption = "Format Column"
.OnAction = "'" & ThisWorkbook.Name & "'!MacroCodeName1"
.Tag = "SomeString"
End With

So this adds "Format Column" to "My Menu Bar" assuming "Software" is a new
menu on the bar. But sometimes its not on the bar, sometimes the bar is
blank. So I have to type "Software", in this case, each time i run the
script...

It actually works great but I want to avoid having to type over and over the
same detail in my menu bar...

Here's a sample that identifies the author as the following...
' macros written 2002-02-28 by Ole P. Erlandsen,


Now before you view the script below, just know it works, but I don't want
the bar floating or disappearing on my from file to file. I want it to be
attached to a file we will call "MyMacros".

I need to be able to set this bar to include a 'newmenu' with menu choices
and more 'newmenus' with other choices...
I really hope that all made sense.

Thank you for all of your help...

Mr BT
