Default Excel toolbar customization

Thanks for the reply. Interesting. I have no xlb file on this machine at all.

Customized changes to to menus and toolbars are saved in Excel11.xlb

Usual path is

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel

Your path may differ

Maybe you don't have permission to save to that folder

Search for Excell11.xlb using Windows search.

When found, re-name to Excel11.OLD

Restart Excel and make some changes. Excel will create a new *.xlb file

Double-click to open it. Does this one have your changes?
