to hide the ribbons. My problem is that they are executed in all open excel files. Is it possible to limit this to the file with the macro, so the ribbons are still there in the other workbooks?

Thanks in advance,

works. I named the file and the sheet HideDemToolBars (just for a test) and nothing happend. What am I doing wrong?

You need to use the Workbook_Activate and Workbook_Deactivate events as well to re-show or hide the toolbar as you switch between workbooks.

I don't think it's a good idea to do this especially as you don't really know what events you should use. If anything goes wrong will you be confident to solve any issues?

Why not just use FullScreen

[The Intern]

Maybe you are right...my boss wanted my to hide the toolbar, but if it is that difficult I use the full screen. He wanted the file to look less like excel and more like a programm.
Anyway, thanks a lot for your help, I could at least deepen my excel knowledge.

I suspect the boss would yell the loudest if things did go wrong.
