    Question Excel, programatically add new menu item? [resolved]

    Is it possible within VBA in Excel to create a new item in the menus or toolbars?

    Thanks, DaveBo

    Yes, use the Office.CommandBarButton object and declare an
    object "Public WithEvents myMenuItem as
    Office.CommandBarButton" in a class instanciated in the
    WorkBook_Open event.

    Try looking at these downloadable examples:

    The "CommandBars with custom icons" creates a new commandbar and adds buttons, but you can use the example to learn how to add buttons to an existing toolbar.
