In any language it should be obvious, merely stating "it doesn't work" doesn't help us know what the problem is that you have encountered
Be kind to accept my excuses ...i have already correct my previous answer that bother you

Hello, I know this thread is long since dead, but I have the same issue as user rooky. (Whose attitude was indeed not that great).
I have a workbook which I intend to host on our company's server, which can be accessed by anyone internally. The workbook will display various charts of the company's revenues, profits, etc. I would like to provide the directory path to this file to various employees and corporate relations. I would like to limit them to one specific view, upon opening the workbook: Fullscreen, no toolbars, no scrollbars.
I have written the macros to do this, and it works perfectly. Upon opening (and enabling macros) this view is restored. However, if the user minimizes this full screen view, or resizes the window to non-fullscreen, all toolbars and scrollbars reappear.
My code, in ThisWorkbook:
The bottom part, I had added on royUK's line. I have also examined the other workbooks you posted, and the problem persists.![]()

I'm also willing to bite the bullet that perhaps this is impossible- making a spreadsheet not only locked and un-editable, but also keeping all toolbars and Excel locked down too. I'm also afraid that once I do this, that the person I give the copy to (to maintain the original before hosting it on server) will be unable to edit it at all!
Any advice? Is it possible to lock down a workbook so entirely that the user can do nothing more than look at a fullscreen view, not even change views or access any menus?
Thank you for your help in advance! New user, registered to post this question.
Well, after speaking with my superior on this, he admitted it was only a minor feature he would like added and it is not a high priority to prevent these toolbars. So I suppose I do not actually need a response to this anymore!
Out of genuine curiosity though, is it possible? Just a thought.
Hi @McBurger,
I have come across this problem in a different thread and will more than happy to share the turn-key solution. But first, please take a few moments to read the forum rules and start a new thread. You can provide a link to this thread if you believe it is of value. Please PM when you start the new thread and I will post the response there.
Thanks.

Hi abousetta ,
Please give the real solution to the user first -which is also helpful to the user,and asking thanks for your help, if your solution is helpful only they will thank you.
Hi Burger,
My solution is Just uncheck all the options in Advanced field from Excel options dialog box and protect your sheet by giving your own password. now, if you even minimize it, it will show in fullscreen mode with no scroll bars and other stuff.
@Banuchander, obviously you need to excelforum and to posting online in general. It is both against the forum rules and is generally considered to be rude to post a question in another person's thread. This is termed hijacking the thread. So please don't promote it. And while we are on the subject of rules, you might want to read them before providing future faulty guidance.![]()

Hi Abousetta,
Sorry about that but i haven't posting posting a question in this thread, I just give the solution to the user who have problem in Full screen and tool bars hide. Please read my post again to understand fully.
again one thing, i also spent my valuable time to find solution to the user, Dont blame me, it is also against the forum rules. Please encourage the new people in the forum. That is my kind request.
Obviously you don't have the level of patience to read the full rules so let me spoon feed you.
@McBurger broke rule #2. "Don't post a question in the thread of another member -- start your own. If you feel it's particularly relevant, provide a link to the other thread."
@Banuchander, you broke rule #7. "Don't ignore requests by Administrators, Moderators, or senior members of the forum. If you are unclear about their request or instructions, then send a private message to them asking for help. Do not post a reply in a thread where such a request (e.g., title change, code tags) is pending."
Please read abousetta's rule quotes.
@McBurger, please open a new thread (no matter how similliar your question is).
If you feel it's particularly relevant, provide a link to the other thread. It makes sense to have a new thread for your question because a thread with numerous replies can be off putting & difficult to pick out relevant replies.
@Banuchander, please don't ignore requests. They are here with purpose.
Thread closed.
