Phillip,
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
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.
