D Dave Peterson Jul 12, 2005 #2 Is your worksheet protected? Does it happen in a brand new worksheet in a brand new workbook? If it does, maybe just resetting that toolbar would be sufficient. Tools|customize|toolbars tab select "worksheet menu bar" click Reset You'll lose any changes that you've made to that toolbar--but you can add them back.

D Dave Peterson Jul 12, 2005 #4 You could try this... Close excel windows start button|search (or find) *.xlb (Look for hidden files in hidden folders, too) Rename all of them to *.xlbOLD. Start excel normally and see if it works ok. If yes, then dump those *.xlbOLD files and customize your toolbar at your leisure. If there's still problems, then close excel and rename the *.xlbOLD files back to *.xlb (no harm, no foul!).
