TOOLBAR FOR A MACRO

[FARAZ QURESHI]

I need to make a button on a new TOOLBAR for starting a specific macro. How
to do the same?

All help shall be appreciated.

Thanx in advance.

The macro is actually a part of a collection of add-in codes in a file.

This is an example of creating a new button on the Worksheet menu bar. If
you wanted to use your own commandbar use the Commandbars.Add method.
Examples are in VBA Help and all over the web.

Sub AddBtn()
DelBtn
With CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls.Add(msoControlButton, ,
, , True)
.Caption = "CS_Override"
.TooltipText = "Mark/unmark selected range as override"
.OnAction = "MarkAsOverride"
.FaceId = 6743
.BeginGroup = True
End With
End Sub

Sub DelBtn()
On Error Resume Next
CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls("CS_Override").Delete
End Sub

For additions to the worksheet menu bar, I really like the way John Walkenbach
does it in his menumaker workbook:

Here's how I do it when I want a toolbar:

(from Debra Dalgleish's site)

And if you use xl2007:

If you want to learn about modifying the ribbon, you can start at Ron de Bruin's
site:
http://www.rondebruin.nl/ribbon.htm
http://www.rondebruin.nl/qat.htm -- For macros for all workbooks (saved as an
addin)
or
http://www.rondebruin.nl/2007addin.htm

In xl2007, those toolbars and menu modifications will show up under the addins.
