I have an Excel spreadsheet (xlsm format) that I built in Windows and that utilizes vba code partially called from a custom menu added to the Ribbon using xml. When I try to open the spreadsheet in Excel 2008, Excel crashes completely. While I have found several forum discussions about vba issues, I cannot find any information about customized interface compatibility between the Windows and Mac versions of Office. I had assumed Excel 2008 would either create a Mac-style menu or ignore my customUI. I did not expect Excel 2008 to simply crash. Has anybody else had this experience? Does anybody know of a solution or what the intended behavior is? Am I correct in understanding that custom menu commands cannot be created on the Mac? I have no experience using AppleScript with Office and am not 100% clear about whether or not scripts can be called from within Excel. Thanks in advance for any help and info.
