Excel and VBA Menus and Command Bars


 

Here are a few tricks I use for making menus and command bars for my Excel projects. Note that toolbars have been removed from Excel starting with Excel 2007, and all toolbars except for context menus (pop-up menus) have also been removed. The VBA editor still uses menus and toolbars.


Floating Command Bar (zipped Excel file)
Floating Command Bar (text file)

This simple workbook contains the code to build a floating command bar when the file is opened, and delete it when it is closed. The command bar has two popup menus, each of which have two command buttons. No documentation supplied, just the file. Download either the complete Excel file, or the text file that contains just the VBA code you need.


Custom Drawing Command Bar.

Here is some code that generates a custom drawing command bar with my favorite built-in buttons. For Excel versions 2003 and earlier.

Display FaceIDs

Display all 3000+ of Microsoft Office's built in button faces (screen by screen), so you can choose the right one for your special menu. Mouse over a button, and the ToolTip shows you its ID number. Click on one, and its image and number are stored in a worksheet for future reference.
