    Default Menus using VBA?

    Hello all,

    I have a question..

    In visual basic6.0, instead of having lot of commnad buttons in a form,
    they can be included in menus using menu editor.. Is it possible to do
    so in VBA?

    I have lot of command buttons here and there in every sheet. But
    operations performed by those macros are not confined to one sheet but
    they are applicable to all sheets in the workbook.. In VB, the user can
    spot the command buttons in a form as one cant scroll a form. But, in
    Excel, there is a possibility to miss a command button that is placed
    near the cell BW5. So, Is it possible to create an extra menu using VBA
    code?

    Any suggestions and expert advice is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Thulasiram

    i believe the answer is yes.
    i searched "new menu" in the newsgroup & came up with this........
    you might find exactly what you need if you search..... i don't know
    how to do it and have never tried it.
