In Excel 2000, s it possible to assign a macro to a toolbar button and make
that toolbar button visible (or active) ONLY when the book containing the
macro is active?

I've written a macro and assigned it to a toolbar button, but the button is
always visible and active.
 
Private Sub Workbook_Activate()
Application.CommandBars("CB name").Controls("button name").Visible =
True
End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()
Application.CommandBars("CB name").Controls("button name").Visible =
False
End Sub

This is ThisWorkbook code module code.

Thanks, Bob. This hides the button perfectly. It is the only button on a
custom toolbar. Is it possible to also hide the toolbar, such that it
reappears docked in the same place it was?
 
Just take out the control

Private Sub Workbook_Activate()
Application.CommandBars("CB name").Visible = True
End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()
Application.CommandBars("CB name").Visible = False
End Sub

Always works better with no control <bg>
